Join the Village Harmony Multicultural choir for a night of celebration of songs from different parts of the world notably that of South Africa, Madagascar, USA, Georgia, Corsica and Aotearoa. The singers are from the US, Canada, UK, Singapore, Germany and Taiwan. Join this opportunity to meet these fabulous singers visiting Aotearoa and meeting local choirs, offering workshops and fundraising concerts for local communities along the way.
The group is led by song leaders Matlakala Bopape from South Africa, Patty Cuyler from the United States and, Lala Simpson from Madagascar/Aotearoa. After a week of intensive learning, this will be the group's last concert in New Zealand after a series of concerts in Hawkes Bay and Kapiti.
