The Drakensburg Boys choir is world renowed for the vocal performance and excellence. The school is only about 20 minutes away from where we live and we finally got to see what they are all about at one of their Wed afternoon concerts.
The first half was more standard choral pieces that is very formal with a conductor, funny suits, and the works.
The second half was entirely led by the students, with all the music being African. They had tons of energy and great choreography.
The free tea and pastries that were served at Half time only made the event that much more special.
Eli snuck away before the concert to loosen up his high soprano in the case that they might invite all former boy's choir members on stage to join them in song. It didnt happen. Bummer.
I forgot my camera, so I had to snag a photo from the internet. Sorry for not getting the "real deal"
Listen to them sing!
