Kwela Kwela Rehearsal | Performed by the International Youth Orchestra

"Kwela Kwela" is a vibrant and rhythmic traditional African song originating from South Africa, particularly associated with the urban music scene of the mid-20th century. Characterised by its infectious melody and buoyant groove, the song typically features call-and-response vocals, upbeat percussion, and lively pennywhistle or flute solos. "Kwela" itself refers to a style of pennywhistle street music, blending influences from traditional Zulu, Xhosa, and jazz elements. Often performed in social gatherings and celebrations, "Kwela Kwela" embodies the joyous spirit and community bonding inherent in African music traditions, making it a cherished piece of cultural heritage with a universal appeal. — Under the baton of well-known European conductor Alexander Walker, talented young musicians from Stellenbosch and the West Coast Youth Orchestra, in collaboration with international players, weave a tapestry of cultures through symphonic masterpieces. #classicalmusic #kwelakwela #African
