The Joy in session
Lopa Khotari presents a special 麻豆社 session with South African a cappella group The Joy, plus music from Hugh Masekela and The Brother Moves On.
Lopa Khotari explores the rich musical traditions of South Africa with a special live session from the Zulu a cappella quintet The Joy, fresh off their European tour following the release of a self-titled debut album earlier this year.
Originally from a small town just outside of Durban in South Africa, Pastor (Ntokozo Bright Magcaba), Duzie (Melokuhle Mkhungo), Guduza (Sphelele Hlophe), Sthombe (Phelelani Sithole) and Marcus (Sanele Ngcobo) met at high school after entering a singing competition. They soon decided to start a project together, and over the past three years as The Joy they have brought their music to some of the world鈥檚 biggest festival stages, including Coachella and Glastonbury. Elsewhere in the show, more South Africa sounds courtesy of The Brother Moves On and Hugh Masekela as well as a protest song against apartheid recorded in 1959 at the African National Congress.
To listen on most smart speakers, just say: 鈥淎sk 麻豆社 Sounds to play Music Planet.鈥�
