Beyond its Grammy awards and its collaborations with great music stars such as U2, Céline Dion and Stevie Wonder, Soweto Gospel Choir is much more than a musical choir: it is the conscience of a country, South Africa, for years subjected to the shame of apartheid.
That's why the group's programs—a mix of black spirituals, traditional African music and contemporary sounds—usually have a message. This is the case of Freedom, a show that celebrates the struggle of South Africans for democracy and against racism and injustice. Freedom is also a celebration of the life of the nation's father, Nelson Mandela. Soweto Gospel Choir, as the millions of people who have seen it live can say, it is, above all, emotion.
