Mantwa Chinoamadi, CEO at T-Musicman (Standard Bank Joy of Jazz Festival Producers), stated that the road to the festival is the most critical for the organization.
“We are a quarter of a Century old, which is a great milestone to achieve. Year-on-year, we have sought ways to remain motivational, and most importantly to give back to our communities. The arts industry is one of the huge contributors to our economy, and many of our talented artists lack the much-needed education about this industry. We encourage participation, and thank the panelists who have agreed to lend us their time to empower the next generation of greats!” said Chinoamadi.
