The Mauritz Lotz story. He is the South African musician with more than 4 000 recordings to his credit. He boasts two Grammy awards and is himself a judge of the Grammys. He is a guitar genius, composer and arranger who commands respect locally and internationally. But music lovers know little about this legend’s life. For the very first time, Mauritz Lotz lifts the veil on his remarkable career and eccentric talent. PLEKTRUM is an intimate, personal and authentic production in which he talks about where he comes from, for the first time. The stories, visuals and music are moving, insightful, brilliant, startlingly honest and expansive. Meet the man behind the guitar and find out about his uncomfortable otherness, his ongoing inspirations, his own perspectives, complex life, insightful philosophy of life, and dreams – the genius with the plectrum in his hand. The musicians sharing the stage with him are the cream of our industry.
