- Listen to "Iza Ngomso" from my new compilation EP 'The Inspiration Thread', a collection of my most inspiring pieces all grouped together. Link here: christophertin.lnk.to/Inspira...
The piece was sketched out on a plane, en route from Dubai to Johannesburg. Looking out my window at the tops of the clouds, I imagined a noble, soaring melody over a rapid stream of triplets.
The text itself is an adaptation of lines from one Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem 'Keramos', translated into Xhosa by my friend Kanyi Maqubela and his mother Vuyelwa:
The mist and cloud will turn to rain,
The rain to mist and cloud again,
To-morrow be to-day.
"Iza Ngomso" is the fourth movement of my album 'The Drop That Contained the Sea'. The album is notable in that every piece is inspired by a different phase of the water cycle--in this case, mist--and each movement is ordered in the way that water flows through the world. Taken as a whole, the album essentially traces a single raindrop as it transforms from clouds to snow, mountain streams to rivers, oceans to rain, and back to rain again, in a perfect cycle.
The piece is performed by Soweto Gospel Choir (with Victor Makhathini singing the solo) and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by me.

I am so glad that Christopher Tin likes to use African songs a lot. African songs have a spirituality and a punch that is all their very own. Also very melodious and lyrics are full of joy and deep with meaning.
Just one thing: THANK YOU! I think you can't know the impact your music can have one someones' life... a thousand times, thank you...
It's been around 6 years or so, that i got introduced to Christopher Tin's music, and that through a Civ game. I sucked at the game, and even though i kept playing, it brought me to the music. I've been an ardent fan since 2015. Sure, my friends think it's weird to listen to songs and pieces that i don't understand, but there is something there which i cannot put into words. It's the feeling of the music, i suppose. The grand scale of it all, the ambiance, and whenever i clim a hill or go on a hike, i always play from Calling all Dawns, or The drop that contained the sea. There is that grand scale, which is indescribable, that's only understandable when felt. So, thank you. Thank you for all these, the music, the songs. It really is special.
Well said! I agree whole heartedly!
Well said! I agree wholeheartedly! As well :D Calling All Dawns live at Llangollen is my absolute favorite, especially Se É Pra Vir Que Venha sung by Nathalie Pires czcams.com/video/m2jzfVF7noA/video.html). This is my go-to music when I work on my business.
I don't think that it is weird to hear music that you don't understand. I've listening English music since I was a teenager and I didn't understand a word at the time. And even if you don't learn the language nothing stops you to get a translation.
But even if we ignore all that, the music and voices perse plays a role.
Lindo depoimento!
Extraordinario!!!!
I think we need to start marketing Maestro Tin's music as a general remedy for high blood pressure, acid reflux, depression, and general bad attitude. 8]
Whenever i feel demotivated this piece, baba yetu & sogno di volare always help me get back on my feet. Thank you for this wonderful music.
O lol
Does the same for me....
Whenever I'm feeling depressed
Same here! Especially Baba Yetu. There is just something about that song. It’s healing ❤️🩹
So... what you're saying is... you haven't heard Waloyo Yamoni?
jk jk they're great, I just wanted to recommend another VERY motivating one
I need more friends that listen to this type of music. It's just my brother and me at the moment, and he's 5,000 miles away. :(
Got him a signed Baba Yetu score for his birthday last month.
And someday when I can afford it, I'll buy a turntable and all of Christopher Tin's albums in vinyl as well!
We could be friends then
The rain will come back from heaven
The eagle also becomes rain and clouds
I'll ride it
Where the fields and fields are green
Painted boats fly through the air
Like a bird that flies,
I catch my breath
Like a bird that flies,
I hold on to the wings
Coming tomorrow
It will count
Let it be tomorrow
The day is coming
I soar on the surface of the earth,
I catch my breath
Over the wild beasts of the field,
On the seas and lakes
Like a bird that flies,
Like a bird I sing
It will count
Let it be tomorrow
thanks for the lyrics
One of my favourites from The Drop That Contained the Sea. I'm glad to see it got a music video to go along with it.
I love the animation. So proud to have been part of this!!!
Always uplifted by the Angel Chorale Choir singing, thank you for your talented leadership ❤
Sue, you're incredible! :-D
Very well done.
❤ South Africa 🇿🇦
i've being all cought up in in the lost birds and the drops music for days now. my soul is like a playfull child.
I crown Christopher Tin for being able to unite the world through music and using different language to his music that unite all nations of the world.
After what has happened in South Africa in the past week and the how we are hit by the pandemic, I think this song has to play on radio stations everyday to remind us that "uyeza ungomso kwaye kuzakubalela ngomso" (tomorrow will come and the rain will clear) beautiful song, especially as a isiXhosa speaking person this hits deep.
never been let down by a christopher tin piece
Thank God it’s only Easter today and not Thanksgiving, I would have ended up in the oven with all these goosebumps
A box of Peeps is much safer!
Ich liebe diese Musik♥️Musik an, Augen zu und genießen.
2:33 this solo. So beautiful
😭so beautiful yet still cheerful
This sounds like it'd do great as part of a movie's soundtrack.
I heard this on the radio a few minutes ago and liked it--my grey parrot LOVES it! She was headbobbing up and down and it was delightful!
I suppose you are a very happy person if you are able to compose music like that.
I gotta say, I was not really ok just now, and I hear this song. I probably will keep not ok, but now, just for now, I'm so muth better. This song is pure transcending hope, its a shelter in some way, it's a shortcut for God's heart. Thank You Christopher Tin. Love from Brasil💛💚🌻
Animated impressionist art juxtaposed with Iza Ngomso fits so well.
Christopher Tin #1 most underrated composer. God bless your soul, sir
Comme d'habitude vous nous livrez là une magnifique composition qui fait ressortir de profondes émotions, merci Christopher Tin et bonjour de France.
Waking up to your music is the best way to start the day!
J'adore la chanson🇨🇩🇨🇩
Christopher, você é magnífico.
Beautiful! Thank you Christopher Tin!!
I adore this song
I love this art style and paired it with Iza Ngomso, beutiful. I guess I'm going to be watching this for a while.
Maravilhoso, como.o tudo que Christopher faz.
So glad that I came across this wonderful song
Beautiful and awe-inspiring, as always. Makes me shiver.
Ahhhhh so beautiful!!
Las obras de Christopher Tin da esperanza en la humanidad, gracias!
Man this is energetic
Balisimo!!!
Can't wait to perform this in June!!!
Where are you performing?
Carnegie Hall?
Thank you Christopher for ever excellent renditions!!!
Beautiful...simply amazing.
Mestres!!!
This is one of my favorite songs in The Drop that Contained the Sea! It's's great to see it here on your main channel!
May God bless...
ONLY TODAY I discover this song on iTunes, and boy am I glad I did! I have since shared with colleagues and friends. I absolutely love it, much like all your work I’ve listened to, it too is moving. Almost indescribable. At best it’s hope-stirring, a shout that “hey, better days are just ahead, hang-on”. Beautiful. I am Zulu qnd also comfortably understand Xhosa, so it’s a crowning moment. Thanks Chris.
*Freaking out*
Oh my i just love this. Your interpretations are amazing. I can listen to music like this all day it never fails to inspire me in my job within the NHS. It soothes a very weary soul at times xx
Wonderful music and beautiful accompanying visuals.
Muchas gracias!!!! Siempre es maravilloso escuchar sus obras! Ésta particularmente me da sensación de libertad.
Bellissimo 🎶💫🌻
Africa YOU ARE BLESSED qha andinandaba ubangubani othini. All our African languages zinalancindi yamaZulu
My favourite song from one of my favourite albums! Thanks for creating this spectacular piece!
Thank you Chris. This is greatly appreciated!
Amazing...👏🥺👏. Beautiful, wonderful, and peaceful.
This was like a hug for my brain after a stressful day. Beautiful piece, beautiful video. Thank you 💛
Wow I definitely missed this one out, but now I got it in my Spotify Playlist. Also these drawings look so beautiful. 😄
This is just beautiful. Thank you
It's beautiful song very good
Beautiful. Just great 👏👏👏
I've been slacking, apparently. I didn't know this album existed. (I have a bad habit of simply enjoying a product instead of massively fan-girling the one who made it.)
And since my bday is coming up soon, my husband finally has a good gift idea. 😎
Looking forward to adding this and the other water-songs to my music library!
I think Heaven will sound something like this. When all this ends and we all sing in our tongues to praise the Lord. Come back soon Jesus, earth like this can get so tiering. ♥️
Would it be pushing one's luck if one hopes for a visualizer video for Waloyo Yamoni? 😬
Also Temen Oblak would be great!
Both of them are my favorite songs in the drop that contained the sea
That would be incredible!

U hi Tu

Amazing! 😮
I am a fan who loves your music.
Thank you for making good music.
I am writing in Korea.
Well that is cool. I really enjoyed the simple visualizer for this song.
Omg I didn't even notice that this came out a couple of months ago. I really like the album this was from. Has been helping me get through these odd times.
Simplesmente maravilhoso!
Marvelous!
Beautiful!
This song has inspired me to write a short story. Christopher... I will be contacting your licensing team to see if I can play this song when I publish my story as a visual (short film)
Best of luck!
Beautiful :)
love it!
another great piece!! man your stuff just keep getting better and better!
Way to go Tin, it feels like a mixture of Sogno di Volare and baba yetu
This is exactly what I thought! The chord progression seems a bit similar to sogno as well! Love all the songs!
Be quiet
This is beautiful ♥️✨
So beautiful!!!
Great job as always
Wonderful.
Come on man this is SO good.
💜💜💜🙏

Soy familia con músicos, aunque no entiendó, me gusta está clase de música. Adoró💫⭐🍀😘🥰
🙌🙏
Can you stop being so talented please? 😄
Je t’aime mon fils ❤️
Quick question: how do you find native speakers to help you write lyrics or phrase the melody in languages you don't know? Do they just pop out of the woodwork by now or do you have to go looking?
Anyway, I'm Norwegian and speak a few other languages too. Just saying...
Great sound. Approved by the 2y old kid here. Any sub title Tin in the future?
I'm brought to a new tomorrow.
💙🕊🧡
