[Nokuthula Ngwenyama]
Nokuthula Ngwenyama is a prominent African American violist and violinist who was born in the U.S. to a Japanese mother and a Zimbabwean father on June 16, 1976. She is profiled at AfriClassical.com, and her personal website is http://www.ngwenyama.com/live/ “Thula,” as she is nicknamed, switched from violin to viola at age 12. She maintains a heavy schedule of performances and has been Visiting Associate Professor (Viola), at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music since 2008. Her most recent recording, Rubinstein Sonatas, is one we have been playing frequently. It deserves to be widely heard, for both the program and the performance.
