South African composer Philip Miller has created a project to assist funding singers and musicians who are currently unable to earn money during the COVID 19 Lockdown. #musoreliefSA
This is a new arrangement of an old song, 'Influenza(1918)' which the celebrated South African choral composer Reuben T. Caluza wrote in response to the Spanish Flu epidemic in our country. Philip located the original 1920 recording online and re-arranged the song for vocals and brass. He worked with a group of talented vocalists and musicians who recorded themselves in their own homes, supplying voice notes for him to assemble the whole song together. The song is available via Spotify and Soundcloud as well as on Facebook and Instagram, donations via BUSQR.
