    Feels as if the bodies are so hungry to move as one...Open to the dance when it feels natural it can return to the quiet again. Liberation of the embodiment of voice in the whole. Let it be expressed! That is one of the greatest gifts South Africa's choral tradition has to give the world. How we move in wholeness, oneness, with the music.
