About Me

Nzinga Sibongile Job was born on April 2, 1981 in Nairobi, Kenya. She has sung since turning age 4 and began training in the classical technique at age 18. She has won the May Johnstone cup for first prize in classical voice as half of a duet in 1999, and the national Soundstage competition of 2002, both in Trinidad, West Indies. The music video for that win, an original composition, is featured here in myspacevideos. She is a mezzo-soprano to contralto in the classical music field and hopes to pursue vocal ethnomusicological studies in India and Africa before returning finally to her country, and touring others to perform as a thespian, dancer and vocal musician in various non-western and western contemporary styles.
