  • The Khayelitsha United Mambazo Choir performs the National Anthem of South Africa - Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika
    This is a song of the show & CD 'Celebrating South Africa' of the 'Khayelitsha United Mambazo Choir' accompanied by images of Nelson Mandela.
    The CD, Celebrating South Africa, from the Khayelitsha United Mambazo Choir is based on their first theatre tour of the Netherlands in 2012. Established in 1991, the men in this unique choir all come from Khayelitsha, the largest township of Capetown. Their speciality is 'isicathamiya', sung unaccompanied in a question-and-answer style that originated in the 1920s and 1930s. Experience the spell-binding South African sounds of this unique choir.

      Not the national anthem of my country but this evokes powerful feelings, once sadness now admiration, pride and strength of a remarkable people.

    This is Nkosi sikilel' iAfrika; which is a beautiful prayer sung to ask god for protection of Africa. It is doubtlessly a moving piece and it firmly encompasses the essence of the prayer.
    HOWEVER your video title is completely ERRONEOUS and quite frankly downright offensive; this is NOT the South African national anthem.
    The current South African National anthem is comprised of a number of different pieces put together, just as our nation is made up of many parts.
    Calling this song the South African national anthem is no more factual than calling "Die Stem" the national anthem.
    At the very least google something before you post it.
