DELIA LAYTON performs as a solo artiste at top venues and private parties across South Africa. Her repertoire ranges from relaxing background music to golden oldies, ballads, sing-a-longs, up-tempo contemporary rock, pop and light jazz.

Delia plays the electric guitar, alto saxophone, flute and keyboards. Programmed sequencing gives her a sound equal in quality to a full backing band. In addition, she provides all the music and “calling” for Barn Dances.

At a square dance the emphasis is on fun, so Delia teaches the dances in a light-hearted manner, quickly getting people into the spirit of the occasion. The dances are simple and easy to follow, thereby involving the entire audience, rather than having them stand around observing the “experts” first! Games and competitions are also organised.

Delia finds it great to alternate the “called” dances with regular dance music such as rock ‘n roll, etc., to vary the pace and enhance the function. Her greatest strength as a performer is her ability to “read a crowd” well and adapt her music to suit the occasion and mood of the audience.

Book Delia for your next function, with absolute confidence.

Sandile Khemese picked up his first violin at the age of eight and hasn’t put it down since. He and his brother Reuben were encouraged to pursue their interest in music by their father and their uncle and mentor, Michael Masote, playing at functions in Soweto from the age of 12.

Sandile and Reuben founded the Soweto String Quartet in 1978 with 2 other members who have since been replaced. Young Makhosini Mnguni saw them play and he was inspired. Even though he was an accomplished trumpet player, he decided to learn violin, later turning his attention to the viola.

The youngest Khemese brother, Thami had by this time also been bitten by the ‘String Bug’ and Sandile took on both of his protégés. The two new recruits became fully fledged members in 1986, forming the present day line-up of Sandile Khemese on 1st violin, Thami Khemese on 2nd violin, Reuben Khemese on Cello and Makhosini Mnguni on Viola.

Sandile & Reuben played in Scotland as members of the original quartet at the Aberdeen Festival of Youth Orchestras in 1979 and Sandile returned to Britain in 1980 to attend the Dartington College of Arts, attaining the A-level in music. This enabled him to enter the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, where he received his diploma in Professional Performance.

On Sandile’s return from the U.K. in 1986, the group was invited to play at the Nico Malan Theatre for the Cape Festival. This excellent performance led to an invitation to appear on the Nedbank Last Night of the Proms, performing Elgar’s ‘Introduction and Allegro for Strings’.
