Join us to celebrate 50 fantastic years of VSO in the grandest event in VSO’s history at the stunning Royal Albert Hall.

Headlining this concert is Hugh Masekela, the legendary South African trumpeter and singer who has covered the globe and played with just about every top star. Known as ‘the master of African jazz’ he can entertain with his stories as well as his music. He will be joined on stage by internationally renowned African artists, Angelique Kidjo and Bassekou Kouyate.
