Mphumzi has been playing drums at the Imvula Music School (formerly Ntonga Music School) since the age of 10 and was pushed by his uncle, who is a professional Marimba player, to attend the music school. He is now convinced that this instrument is going to change his life and will help him to live a bright future.

Meet Mphumzi through this video interview and discover his vision of life and hopes for his future.
