Tanyaradzwa Mazarura
Born:
My name is Tanyaradzwa Mazarura. Born in 1970 in Murehwa Zimbabwe. My father is the uncle to the late legend and Afro jazz musician; Oliver Mtukudzi.. I literally lived with Oliver Mtukudzi during his very early days when he would have to live with his uncle; my father in Murehwa. I was therefore privileged to be influenced by the jazz music of the 1970s together with him. I was always much younger than him though;ie about fifteen years younger. He then went on to influence me into his kind of jazz but my jazz is not exactly similar to his. I happen to be the first one to introduce his daughter; Selmor to music well before her father had any music related contact with her; to an extent that she recorded the song "iwewe neni (|which I composed) on her initial musical album. I have written Oliver Bookie "Roots of the legend" which is a narrative of my experiences with the legend and the latest one,"Legends never Die" which is about his late days of life, passing on, the funeral and the events that ensued
