"A magnificent voice whose artistry is comparable to the best world-class
singers many times his age."
Home: Welcome
Thandolwethu Mamba has been described as having a “magnificent voice” whose “artistry is comparable to the best world-class singers many times his age”.
Growing up in the small kingdom of Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), he had dreams of becoming a medical doctor but discovering his passion for music while a freshman at Duke University set him on a path to finally embracing his purpose to heal the world from the stage instead of an operating table.
He recently created the role of Don Calogero Sedàra in the world premiere of Michael Deallaira's The Leopard with the Frost Opera Theater. Before that, he made his Florida Grand Opera debut as Town Magistrate in Signor Deluso.
Future engagements include performances in Carmen, The Magic Flute, and Harvey Milk with the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis as a Gerdine Young Artist for the 2022 season.
Thando is committed to developing the growth of Opera as a celebrated and sustainable artform in his home country and the African continent at large.
