Back in 2015 PBS was privileged to welcome members of Soweto’s Memeza Gospel Choir into our studios to perform an inspiring and intimate session on Flight 1067 to Africa. At the time the ensemble were in Australia to perform the show Mandela in Me, a powerful work that celebrated the life of South Africa’s most iconic figure while also sharing the songs and the spirit of South African culture.
As the world deals with a once-in-a-generation pandemic and nations across the globe grapple with the challenges faced by many millions of people, it seems apt to re-visit a musical performance that carries messages of hope, peace, tolerance and harmony.
Tune in to Flight 1067 to Africa at 3pm on Sunday April 18 to once again hear the voices of the Memeza Gospel Choir from Soweto, proudly brought to you by our good friends at Mountain Goat.
