From the earliest colonial days until the present time, South African music has created itself out of the mingling of local ideas and forms with those imported from outside the country, giving it all a special twist that carries with it the unmistakeable flavour of the country. Today South African music displays a wild blend of the classical with the innovative, of the tried and tested with the new and experimental. From missionary hymns and jazz to kwela and kwaito, South African musicians have always given international trends an unmistakeable flavour of our own.
