Music is a spiritual thing, you don't play with music. If you play with music you will die young. You see, because when the higher forces give you the gift of music... musicianship, it must be well used for the gift of humanity.

Morena Leraba
Location: San Lorenzo Area
Entry: €25 (limited space!)
Food and drinks available
Over the past eight years, Morena Leraba has become a globally acclaimed flagbearer of a remodelled Lesotho sound, manifested through a series of live performances, numerous high-wattage collaborations and a debut EP recorded in Johannesburg.
A sub-genre of Sesotho traditional music or poetry, Famo is famous in Morena Leraba's home district of Mafeteng (south of Lesotho capital's Maseru). I understand Famo,
says Morena Leraba. However, because we also have influences from elsewhere musically, I've always re-imagined Famo. I've always re-imagined Sesotho traditional music. So, coming to Johannesburg and meeting all the musicians that contributed to our journey so far, was the manifestation, perhaps, of that re-imagination.

Leilah Broukhim
