Half of the choir {Global Harmony} had a delightful evening overlooking Rutland Water on Friday night.
We sang a dozen songs in a splendid garden in Manton, at then culmination of a safari supper.
Here’s just a snippet: 3 Songs from Africa – (it’s a poor recording on a mobile-phone but better than nowt)
Senzenina (starts 1min 22secs in) is a favourite of mine – (with me on the call and the choir doing an elevating job of swelling the melody ) – I love this song.
It featured in the mediocre film ‘The Power of One’, as part of an excellent sound track. The film is an adaption of IMHO a great 1989 novel of the same name by Bryce Courtenay . This book is on my personal top ten of influential novels.
Interestingly the lyrics of this version of Senzenina translate to: What have we done? Our sin is… What have we done?
My sentiments exactly.
and another…
