Nothemba Madumo speaks to Cape Town native Melanie Scholtz, a classically trained singer who found her true voice in jazz and now carries South African soul onto global stages. A songwriter, educator, and recent SAMA Award winner, Scholtz’s music tells powerful stories of identity, freedom, and home, shaped by both local roots and international experience.
Jazz and Beyond with Nothemba Madumo is 702 and CapeTalk’s Sunday evening jazz show.
