Soweto Gospel Choir

This event is now SOLD OUT.

Direct from South Africa, the 32-member strong Soweto Gospel Choir sings, sways, and swoops through a concert of traditional African gospel music, tunes by Otis Redding and the soul-styled reggae of Jimmy Cliff. Under the direction of notable choirmaster David Mulovhedzi, the Choir draws from the best talent of many churches and communities around Soweto, accompanied by a dynamic four-piece band, traditional dancers and drummers.
