Think of how Apartheid's madness tried to prevent this! What blindness and ignorance racial prejudice is born of. Fear deprived South Africa of hundreds of years of doing what is natural: joining together in the music of co-creation toward a better more humane and beautiful world that honours our Creator. Viva the Songs of Freedom Viva! They are born of the Vast Heart for all of Humanity to celebrate and remember who we are born to be!

I'm from Taiwan and also a members of chorus(Nibun chorus). Four years ago, we also went to South Africa participate in the World Choir Competition. I've got so many joy from your choral video. I'll continue to follow and thanks for sharing all of this.
Kudos to Andre and the whole Team It's stuff like this that makes me to be a proud South African. I still maintain that South Africa is for all that live in it regardless of their skin color or race! Let's show the world that we're fighting our plagues together ♡
This is what I call the best world culture! Congratz to thje Stellenbosch University Choir and to the percussion girl. Best regards from Brazil. (I'm a BIG fan of the choir)
In high school we sang this song as a set piece in our country's music festival (I'm from Kenya🇰🇪). It was such a beautiful song. I still remember the different vocal parts.
I watched them perform live a week ago in Pretoria and i must say that if you think they sound amazing now you should hear them live... Andre has done a great job with this choir and they are going places. keep up the great work Maties
Heading = we will get in Sometime in the song they said open the door for us we want to get in We will get in 🎶 and started dancing I couldn’t hear the other parts well But it revolves around that part
Sung by the groom and guests as they wish to enter the home/kraal of the bride We ask for the rights and privileges of this home now that we too are part of this family (Sifuna amalungelo alapha emzini)."
Eventhough I'm a Ghanaian, I really can't stop listening to this song. Oh my heart 💖💞 ❤ Love their Choreography. I wish to enroll in this school because of this choir.
I love repeating this: Greatest choir in the world. And let’s hear it for the djembe player and the choreography, which I think the students do themselves.
Beautiful 👌👌 this is a South Africa I want. I wish the ANC and EFF members could see this and stop this madness of reverse apartheid. Thumbs up and I'll share this song with beautiful South African. Listening from the UK 🇬🇧, Proudly South African 🇿🇦
MTIMANDE, you have certainly lost touch with your country as you are talking nonsense. What reverse apartheid are you taking about? You just had to come in and spoil the festive mood!
@@mbhekitembe2179 you know that your thinking utterances are BULLSHIT!! Are you not seeing what the ANC and EFF utterances are RACIST and reverse racism. Including BEE is that not reverse apartheid. Wake up from that deep dleep of yours. I'm going to ask you a question, hopefully you'llbeabletoanswer it and you won'ttell me I'masking you "nonsense". Are you benefitting from BEE or your family and friends benefitting from it?🤔
Wow, this one is even better than the previous TH-cam video I just watched from this choir, "Say Something." This one really has legs! (And arms -- well -- and heart! Many hearts. My heart, too!!!) If your whole university is like this, what a truly amazing place it must be.
The thing that makes this choir perfect is the fact that there are also peolpe that l8k British are songing African songs and getting it right. Thank you God for what i see
My life in the world of choral. I met both performers, conductors, composers and singers, I was always interested in transition part of the song, as how none instrumental choir deal with the song and I became better person of that learning curve.
As long as I'm in the world the Father the son and the holy Spirit has a voice in the world a living voice of the living I give freelee because I am free as a bird
Wooow Stellenbosch you just made me a proud African n Kenyan.how you guys just sing songs of different cultures n bring out that inspiring aspect is excellent.

Jennifer Ferguson It's SO beautiful it stirs my soul with chills in a good way!

I wonder why so many people are leaving.
Not hundreds of years
Apartheid lasted from 1948 to 1994
But point well made however long is was never acceptable.
The drummer....oh the drummer! For when its in your veins this....she's incredible!
noticed that too
It is far harder to drum that well on a djembe than some might think.
the way the conductor walked off stage at 1:47 is nothing short of legendary😂

...as right now in the USA there's so much hostility and jealousy about "cultural appropriation" WE are ALL AFRIKA.

Lyrics pls
SBC?
You sang this song in the same language? Woow that's powerful!
Proudly South African! Y'all just made me proud to be a South African.
I need to invite these guys when my bride is coming home, this is pure wedding song welcoming umakoti
if you're reading this you will prevail, just keep pushing and please dont give up❤❤❤
Thanks I really needed to hear this
I watched them perform live a week ago in Pretoria and i must say that if you think they sound amazing now you should hear them live... Andre has done a great job with this choir and they are going places. keep up the great work Maties
You are really lucky!!!
😭
The song is so joyful and pretty, the drummer was awesome, and the choir looks like they had a lot of fun singing it. Just awesome!
Powerfull! I don't understand the meaning - sorry - but this is beautiful. It´s universal. Love from Germany!

Heading = we will get in
Sometime in the song they said
open the door for us we want to get in
We will get in 🎶 and started dancing
I couldn’t hear the other parts well
But it revolves around that part
It roughly translates to "let us in you wankers"
Sung by the groom and guests as they wish to enter the home/kraal of the bride
We ask for the rights and privileges of this home now that we too are part of this family (Sifuna amalungelo alapha emzini)."
"We will enter this homestead."
Eventhough I'm a Ghanaian, I really can't stop listening to this song.
Oh my heart 💖💞 ❤
Love their Choreography.
I wish to enroll in this school because of this choir.
This is a Xhosa wedding song, we sing it in a very wedding usually standing by the gate to ask permission to enter the brides/groom yard/house.
Meki M Where do I find the entire lyric? Can you help me?
Thanks, Meki! We love it!
Traditional Zulu wedding song, read the description 😊
That’s Zulu wedding song
This is a Xhosa song
The drummer 🙌♥️😭
United South Africa! United Stellies! United Maties! ONE LOVE!!!
I love repeating this: Greatest choir in the world. And let’s hear it for the djembe player and the choreography, which I think the students do themselves.
Many South Africans can sing. Not just this choir, other South African choirs I've listened to show an indescribable energy when they sing.
your mother has a favorite child and its not you
