17 year-old Michael Thwala, our star pianist at Sparrow, has been progressing musically at a remarkable pace this year. His classes at the Central Johannesburg College of Music have taught him more in six months than I can often play after 18 years of piano!
Last week, in a 6-hour period of time, Michael composed, recorded and edited the following jazz piece. The title is "Peace". When I asked him why he chose that name, he held up two fingers in the peace sign and said, "You know, peace." Go figure, but the song is amazing!
