Moshoeshoe Day is a public holiday in Lesotho, observed on March 11 and usually celebrated through traditional music, dance, indigenous games and horse racing. The award-winning saxophonist said this year, he would celebrate Moshoeshoe Day in SA.
Much as the day is marked on March 11 with various activities, the celebration continues the entire month of March. Speaking to Sowetan from his home in Lesotho, Mapefane said he was looking forward to mesmerising local audiences.“I will be celebrating the founder of Basotho nation. I feel very honoured to be part of this event that celebrates my king. I was approached about the event organisers last month and I jumped at the opportunity because it means a lot to me.
“It is not the first time I will be performing to celebrate my king. I have done so in Lesotho when various events were hosted. It is an important moment for me and my band to be heading to SA to celebrate Morena Moshoeshoe. I am looking forward to perform there again because I realised that multitudes of people enjoyed my last performance, and it was a great feeling.”
