History Doesn’t Repeat Itself, but it Does Rhyme. Dumile Feni: African Guernica

First Performance of the Piece Inkomo iwile, by Philip Miller and Tshegofatso Moeng

This video is a recording of the first-ever live performance of the music piece Inkomo iwile, by South African artists Philip Miller and Tshegofatso Moeng, on 24 March 2026. The composition, in conjunction with the exhibition History Doesn’t Repeat Itself, but it Does Rhyme. Dumile Feni: African Guernica, was created specifically for the occasion and features accompaniments by students from Madrid’s Royal Conservatory of Music. In the piece, the performers seek to establish a parallel dialogue between traditional South African sounds and the classical repertoire of string, voice and wind instruments.
