The Target World Music and Dance Series at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts presents three distinctive performances in February. The month kicks off on Feb 7 at 7:30 pm with hip-hop powerhouse RENNIE HARRIS PUREMOVEMENT. World-renowned, 2013 Grammy Award-nominated LADYSMITH BLACK MAMBAZO follows on Feb 9 at 7:30 pm and Afro-Caribbean songstress MARIA DE BARROS brings a dance party to the Ordway on Feb 19 at 7:30 pm.

Led by founder and leader Joseph Shabalala, Ladysmith Black Mambazo now celebrates more than 50 years of joyous and uplifting music that marries the intricate rhythms and harmonies of their native South African musical traditions to the sounds and sentiments of Christian gospel music. In those years, the a cappella vocal group has created a musical and spiritual alchemy that has touched a worldwide audience representing every corner of the religious, cultural, and ethnic landscape. Their musical efforts over the past five decades have garnered praise and accolades within the recording industry, but also solidified their identity as a cultural force to be reckoned with.
