Wow.... I hope the members of this choral group that sang this piece are reading this comment. I am a musicologist and I tell you that this is superb. The texture, melody, color, polyphony, harmony, artistic performance was on point!

I am Kenyan but I have to admit this is top top. It reminds me of my local catholic church in the village before I moved to the city of Nairobi. Africa is the same. We should be one country. We have so much in common. Our local languages are extremely sweet to listen to even when you don't understand.
