In their brief 5-year existence, Soweto Gospel Choir has become an international sensation, selling out concert halls worldwide, scoring two Grammy awards and hitting the top of the Billboard World Music Chart. They have backed Bono, Peter Gabriel and Celine Dion, recorded with Robert Plant and been a part of such all-star tribute projects as “Going Home: A Tribute To Fats Domino” (with Paul McCartney, Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, et al) and “In The Name Of Love: Africa Celebrates U2”. This CD and companion DVD release captures all of the spontaneity and infectious spirit that makes Soweto Gospel Choir's live performances an unforgettable experience. They are one of those groups whose performances deliver “something extra” beyond their studio recordings and that is brilliantly realised here.
