Dogalen a Mabaso - Stellenbosch University Choir
Conducted by André van der Merwe
Composed by Nilo Alcala
The composer employs ostinato patterns and bitonality to convey the story of Dogalen. Dogalen snatched a charm from an old woman. With the charm she planned to enchant a rich sultan. However, the charm fell from her window into the hands of another woman, Raga. As the sultan passed by, Raga presented the charm to him and he fell in love with her. Dogalen’s heart was broken.

Spoegwolf Arranged by André van der Merwe Jy’s hier by my, die son rondom ons. Jy’t die see ingebring en dit omring jou in wit lakens. Ek weet nie van planete nie; ek weet nie hoe ons wentel nie, maar dis om-en-om-en-om: deesdae is ek swaarder aan jou. As ek oor jou sing, die ruimte in, is daar tekens in die nag: dis duidelik, maar sag: dit het jou teruggebring!

와우~~너무 멋진 무대 감사합니다^^
This! This is the absolutely best version of Baba Yetu in the world. Perfection!
This listener believes that you cut a word out of the lyrics and replaced it with a less vulgar word, thus removing the climactic lyrical impact of disgust that the singer was meant to show and be willing to degrade himself/herself to in order to EXPRESS this disgust without concern about the potential censorship impact that would result - and you cut the sharpest point of the sword and made it dull.
Please can I get the score?
They absolutely nailed it… Can’t stop listening to it, such an amazing piece of art work from the diverse community of SA❤.
goosebumps

I sing in a large Cornish Male Voice choir and you just make the hairs on my neck stand up. I have never heard a richer or more beautiful sound .I must admit to listening to you most nights....your singing brings me to tears many times. Wonderful....just wonderful.
