The Ndlovu Youth Choir are heading to Atlanta in the USA to perform as part of a tribute to the life of Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

 

Atlanta, United States of America (27 September 2022) – The Ndlovu Youth Choir is giving a special performance in Atlanta, Georgia this week in honour of the Late Archbishop Desmond Tutu. The proudly South African choir was invited to give the performance by the Archbishop Desmond Tutu Atlanta Tribute Committee.

The event, “Tutu Legacy Lives in Us”, is being hosted on the 28th of September 2022 and is being hosted to highlight the life’s work of the iconic man. They will honour his human rights activism and transformational message of restorative social justice and reconciliation.

The event will be attended by the people that Tutu worked with most closely in the 80s and 90s to help fight apartheid in South Africa. He was a guest professor for Emory University at Candler School of Theology from 1991-1992 and 1998-2000; he was later honoured with an honourary degree from the university.

The Ndlovu Youth Choir will be at the event to add a beautiful South African touch to the tribute. The choir is famous for its stunning renditions and performances. They even went all the way to America’s Got Talent and did phenomenally well.

The choir put on an impromptu performance at the airport before boarding their flight to Atlanta. They shared it on the Facebook page and fans are loving it.
