Soweto Gospel Choir: Songs of the Free - In Honor of Nelson Mandela's 100th Birthday

Presented by Sunset Presents

Sunset Presents returning favorites, Soweto Gospel Choir was formed to celebrate the unique and inspirational power of African Gospel music. With this tour, South Africa's quintessential musical ensemble brought a centenary celebration of Nelson Mandela. The GRAMMY Award-winning choir has collaborated with some of the biggest names in music — including U2, John Legend, Peter Gabriel, and Diana Ross — and scored an Academy Award nomination for its work on the soundtrack to Pixar's WALL-E. The 43-member choir, drawn from churches in and around Soweto, inspires audiences, sharing the joy of faith.
