Msondo Ngoma Music Band

Msondo Ngoma Music Band (formerly known as NUTA Jazz Band, renamed Juwata Jazz Band, and then OTTU Jazz Band) is an influential and long-lived Tanzanian muziki wa dansi (Bongo Dansi). Having been established in 1964, it is the oldest active dansi band in Tanzania as well in Africa.

The band began in 1964 and was originally named "NUTA Jazz Band", after its sponsor, the National Union of Tanganyika (NUTA), which was the main Tanzanian trade union. In the early years of dansi, the NUTA Jazz Band was very influential both artistically and in terms of financial organization; namely, it was one of the first dansi bands to constitute itself into a "cooperative" of salaried musicians (a model that would become widespread in the 1970s).

In the 1960s, NUTA Jazz Band was led by trumpeter-singer late Joseph Lusungu and saxophonist Mnenge Ramadhani, who defined the brass-centered sound of the band.

NUTA Jazz Band held its position as one of the major Tanzanian dansi bands throughout the latter half of the 1960s and most of the 1970s. In 1977 it experienced a major change in personnel, with many of its most talented musicians (including Muhiddin Maalim Gurumo and Hassani Rehani Bitchuka) leaving the band to form a new ensemble, Mlimani Park Orchestra. In 1977, the band changed its name to "Juwata Jazz", after the Swahili name of its sponsor (NUTA), Jumuiya ya Wafanyakazi Tanzania. About at the same time, guitarist Saidi Mabera became the new leader of the band. He wrote several of Juwata's hit songs of the 1980s. After Mabera, both Maalim and Bitchuka (who rejoined the band in 1991) became leaders. Muhidini Gurumo is credited with on the major hits of Juwata in the 1990s, Usia kwa watoto.

The band changed its name again in 1991 from Juwata Jazz to OTTU Jazz, when the trade union that sponsored it was renamed Organization of Tanzanian Trade Unions. The band is still active as "Msondo Ngoma", performing regularly at the DCC Club in Kariakoo,Dar-es-salaam for example,and is the oldest active dansi band in Tanzania as well as in Africa. This is reflected by its motto baba ya muziki, "father of music".

"Msondo Ngoma Music Band" also known as "Baba ya Muziki" means "father of Music" .

EMPOWERMENT FORUM - AUGUST 28TH

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: YOUNG DEE - KIJUKUU

Jokate ft. Lucci - Kaka Dada

Job Interview Question

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect man (or) woman you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car?

Think before you continue reading. This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover again.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.

He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my old friend, and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman of my dreams."

Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

OVERCOME YOUR FEARS

One of the biggest temptations we face in life is to fear. Many fears exist – fear of loss, failure, the past, etc. Fear robs us of our determination and will-power. It causes our hope to shrivel and die. Fear may have prevented you from making important decisions in your life. Fear and insecurity dominate the life without faith. Looking at life and its adversities from a natural point of view brings fear, worry and anxiety but a look of faith brings improvement. So, whatever your situation, don’t give in to fear. Keep the faith and take heart for God said: “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” 6 So we say with confidence,’ The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?’ ” (Hebrews 13:5-6) Millions have surrendered to their fears while their hearts dream of a miracle. Don’t let this happen to you; overcome your fears today, in Jesus’ name!
