Since its inception in 2009, the Ndlovu Youth Choir has become one of the world’s most loved choirs. Their unique musical arrangements, powerhouse vocals, irresistibly combined with mesmerising choreography and infectious energy have inspired millions across the globe.
When asked how the song came about the choir said:
“We Will Rise is a Tribute to the spirit of South African resilience and Ubuntu. Our nation has faced innumerable challenges that always seem insurmountable at first, until we come together and rise above them. This song seeks to inspire us to rise above these trying times, but is especially to encourage our friends and colleagues in the arts and entertainment world who are without work. This too shall pass. We Will Rise”.
The visuals come off of the back of the Choir’s latest album “Rise” which dropped this past December and has been a symbol of hope and encouragement to the nation. The visuals aim to bring life to the lyrics of “We Will Rise” and remain as a constant reminder to the nation that we can overcome it all.
