African Marimba Instructor Recommendations?

May 1st, 2008

Teacher

Many readers write in asking for recommendations for teachers of African marimba music. While I have my own opinions, they are limited to my own experiences and biases.

I’d like to invite other readers to recommend their favorite marimba instructors. Comment on this post with your favorite instructor. Please include the instructor’s name, location, regional specialties, and contact information.

    I recommend Sheree Seretse in Seattle Washington. She is the musical director for Anzanga & Shumba (both Seattle area marimba bands)

    She teaches mostly Shona/Zimbabwean style marimba, and is one of Dumi’s original students.

    Sheree Seretse / Anzanga

    I honestly have no idea about marimba music teachers, I say so because in the Eastern Cape we need teachers because though we have schools/ Art Centres with marimbas we are looking for some.I personally studied marimba music at Kwanongoma College -Zimbabwe far back 1980-82 under Alport Mhlanga, he must be aged now,I am also out of practice now. I dont even have his contacts right now.
