- Iconic soprano Pretty Yende grew up buoyed by family and a tight-knit church community, surrounded by love and a collective joy for singing. As Yende prepares to make her San Francisco Opera debut in the new production of La Traviata, this music-rich episode of In Song opens a window into the world of this enchanting artist, following her home as she visits with her congregation and her family, and performs with the young students of her alma mater, the Ndlela Secondary School.
Pretty Yende is truly iconic, embodying hope for all young South African singers who would want to flourish in this industry. I remember seeing her during the Tirisano Schools Choral Eisteddfod back in 2003 when we were in high school. Today, her dream has flourished into something extraordinary, and we can only look forward to even greater achievements. Her mother rests peacefully, knowing the seed she planted has grown into a legacy that is inspiring and transforming the world. I have so much love and admiration for her!
She was born in a township, a poor South African ghetto at the time of Apartheid, and she never imagined, at the age of 38, being the personal guest of Charles III to sing at his coronation.... I am proud of Pretty YENDE the first African to sing in front of the world for a historic event. Believe and work to realize your dreams because nothing is impossible to the one who believes
This is very inspirational and moving. Proudly South African!!! Thank you San Francisco Opera for this documentary and thank you Pretty for touching our lives with your gift of music.
