iLand Act 1913
The South African composer Philip Miller and his collaborator, Tshegofatso Moeng recently created an arrangement of a new song to continue to raise funds for local singers and musicians who are currently unable to earn a living during the COVID 19 Lockdown. The song, iLand Act 1913 is composed by the celebrated composer, Reuben T Caluza. This song is particularly relevant in today’s world and will resonate with everyone due to the current crisis.
Once again, Philip worked with a group of talented vocalists and musicians all over the country who recorded themselves in their own homes, supplying voice notes for him to assemble the whole song. The video is created by Marcos Martins, using cellphone videos from the amazing vocalists involved in the making of this work.

Chambre Noire/Black Box
“the most interesting textures and timbres of music results from the composer’s inventiveness his music is deftly woven into the piece”
- Maria-Christina. Villasenor, Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York

“Miller creates a richly eclectic postmodern soundtrack which lends immense power to the dramatic emotive shifts that makes Black Box such a potent sensory experience.”
- Alex Dodd, Business Day
