VMSIX will also be releasing a full A Capella CD later this year.
The main highlight for this year is the first ever International Vocal Festival VMSIX will be hosting. The Windhoek International Vocal Festival is an initial idea of VMSIX to bring groups together from different background of music origin and country and share the common love of music. This will be the first time Namibia will host such a gathering. The dates of the Festival 29 August - 1 September 2012, the festival will focus mainly on Workshops, Training and Shows and we hope to attract singers and lovers of music from (SADC) Southern Africa.
Topic concetration: Arts and Culture, Master classes & Music business workshops.
