Drumming & Dining

Surrounded by age old Oaks, with the inviting glow of moyo's signature fire imbola's, is the setting for Gauteng’s only regular drumming circle open to all members of the public.

On the first Wednesday of every month, moyo Fountains ignites with both fire and passion, stirred by the rhythmic  beat of over one hundred guests participating in this unique social event!

Welcomed with a glass of Welmoed Merlot or Sauvignon Blanc and the melodic sound’s of Hillary and Onwell playing their unique traditional Mbira instrument, guests make their way to the nearby circle participating in a drumming drama which unfolds during the course of 45 minutes.

 Driven by the charismatic Drum Cafe team, guests are fed a series of intricate drumming patterns, climaxing with an explosion of sound, soul and collective energy!

Hidden talents have a way of emerging when the vibe is just right and if you are lucky one of the skilled performers may strut his stuff with a fiery display of somewhat unconventional artistry….

 Once the drumming has reached its zenith, appetites are awakened and the evening evolves into a gastronomic adventure with taste sensations from all over Africa included in the buffet dinner line up.

BUT the eve is not complete without a short drumming extravaganza from the featured act for the night!

If you are moved by muscles and bare torsos, then the sheer power of SilverBlack will keep you going for weeks to come! Alternatively the gorgeous all female marimba band Basadi Le Meropa with their vibrant classic African songs will keep your spirit’s high and get you to wish you had brought along those dancing shoes!
