KTM Choral Choir Are Champs

The annual Heritage Month Competition started off with a bang when the chorale choirs battled it out for the honour of being crowned this year's winner on Friday at Maitisong.

The audience was treated to delightful entertainment and enjoyed the activities.KTM Choral choir stole the limelight beating Serowe Symphony choir (the 2011 winners) who came second. Maun Choristers came third and  Letlapa Choral choir, making their maiden appearance in the national finals, were fourth.Along with  performing a song of their choice, choirs also competed in the  standard song,  O gorogile ngwaga. Even though each interpreted the standard song  in their own way, the choirs kept the audience entertained with their melodies.

In their own composed songs commonly known as Lerabi, each choir presented its unique style. Maun choir looked stunning in their Herero outfits, while other choirs wore different German print dresses each representing their culture.  Even though the competition was tough, all the choirs gave it their best. According to one of the judges, Seabe Raditladi, judging was based on song  clarity, message and  composure. He said all the choirs failed to nail down the standard song.  He urged the choir conductors to understand the way a song is composed before they attempt to sing it.
