Perhaps one of the more familiar genres to world music listeners is the exhilerating sound of African vocal music. Africa is a land of a million musics, and the styles would take a devotee a lifetime to fully explore. Here, the Alexandra Youth Choral Choir, an award-winning ensemble from the heart of South Africa's musical mecca, share some of the best and most glorious examples of their native singing. Sung in Zulu, Sotho, English, and Xhosa, these songs provide an authentic and outstanding example of the South African Choral style from 'The Rainbow Nation'.
