Genre-defying cellist Abel Selaocoe is joined by his band Chesaba and the Manchester Collective string players in this electrifying take on a traditional South African song. Its title, ‘Ka Bohaleng’ (On The Sharp Side) references a common saying that “a woman holds a knife on the sharp end”. The song is a dedication to all mothers, and the women who take care of us through times of hardship.
Filmed as part of the Sirocco tour at the Royal Northern College of Music, Manchester in October 2019.

I'm a classical musician and am used to playing Beethoven, Shostakovich, etc., and I must say that this is WAY COOL! Mesmerizing rhythms, boundless energy and joy. And I know how hard it is to play those rhythms and keep it so tight and together, so bravo to all the musicians here!
Exactly ! I'm a drummer in love with odd signatures and this is just sick ! So fucking rock
Agreed
If it wasnt for tick tok i wouldnt find this masterpiece. Absolutley amazing😍😍😍
Me too. This is such an epic performance!
Tumblr/tiktok for me All his songs are now added to my playlist in TH-cam music
Same here!
I have a young cellist at home who just discovered Abel and is absolutely inspired by him.
the cut to the crowd had me shocked like how are yall not moving to this at all??? phenomenal stuff!
They're in Manchester. A waltz or foxtrot should get them moving
@@Skizze37lmao
this kind of energy can wake up the world
Yes you told the correct one
Abel is not only "genre-defying", he's gravity-defying. What a musician he is, but also what a superb ensemble he is making music with. Such passion, joy, and astonishing musicianship all around. Bravissimo.
If I was in the audience I would not be able to sit still!! Amazing!! 💥💥💥
They looked too middle class to sing and join in lol
Man I'm walking to get and I catch myself bouncing. I've just given in and starting moving like a crazy person 😂😂
Yes you wouldn't. Just had the opportunity to see them yesterday in Berlin Konzerthaus. I am speechless. I didn't know what to expect, since I got the ticket as a gift and just went in without knowing what I will witness. Still get the shivers thinking of it.
When the drummer just goes full send at the end it's as powerful and enlivening to witness as most rock drummers need a full kit to be. This whole performance is awesome.
I am returning to music after a prolonged hiatus. Can I tell you how lovingly agitated and restless this made me??? The creative excellence here struck a deep cord of longing and reminded me of the sanctity of what we are as singers,musicians and performers. This was Brilliant. Thank you.
South Africans and Jazz? absolutely mad!😭❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥
How can I not have heard of either Abel or the collective before this? I'm sharing it with everyone I know. Fantastic! My music find of the year!
I just heard him for the first time on PBS television this last week. Love it! 👍😊
I live in a place where snow can fall in the middle of May. I am fascinated by your music. It's beautiful
This deserves so many more views. It really melted my brain when a friend shared this with me.
As a cello student is awesome to see the cello being explored with different styles and rhythms, it is something I want to achieve with my culture, as latin music on cello is not that common or explored (latin american here)
This is so inspiring!!!
pD:loved that polymeter
Thanks Bernardo! It's what really gets us excited as well - collaboration with friends and colleagues from different worlds. Keep fighting the good fight!
Check out Muneer B Fennell (there is a lot on TheMusicalEvent channel :) )
hey there, in Arraigo Cuarteto channel we have uploaded two argentinian songs arranged for cello quartet, and four more latinamerican songs are to come. Our playing is not technically unconventional, but although we were classicaly taught we aim to give due value to music from our land in a rather unexplored format.
as you say, it's great to come across this type of artists. listening was a joy for me too
Who in the world is this virtuoso? And where, when, and how did he come to be???!!!!!
Abel Selaocoe - an article in today's Guardian (24/07/2022) brought me here. Thank you Guardian! Thank you Abel!
There's always the drummer that goes nuts.. Love it!! Awesome soul and power!! ✨🤸♀️⚡🌠

I am speechless! It remembers every cell of your body about what life is about: pure energy.... i am just done ...thank you ... you are blessed!! Awesome musicians 🔥
Abel Selaocoe is a real power artist!!! Bravo to the whole group, and what a percussion solo at the end!!!
