Jazz sensation and vocal teacher Rute Mbangwa is set to release her
third album, a 16-track double CD in April after a five-year breather.
Rute, who last released her second album in 2007, entitled Rute Goes
Kumanginde has matured like wine and her versatility, creativity and
innovation is displayed in the new album.
"I am now back in the studio following a break I took to focus on my
studies. I graduated last year and I want to make up for my absence
because I know my fans had been starved of my music," said Mbangwa.
Rute embodies hope for the future of Zimbabwean women artists. In a
time of uncertainty in the industry, she has forged ahead strongly,
working hard and employing a highly professional outlook which has
earned her respect of other players in the industry, and is already
paving the way to acclaim.ALLAFRICA.COM
