As many churches prepare to congregate for this upcoming Easter holidays, the Mabaila Foundation did not see the point of waiting to praise the Lord during the holidays as they hosted a massive clap and tap event at the Limkokwing University of Creative Arts’ Hall of Fame Saturday evening.

The event attracted a big audience some of whom came from across the border in South Africa and other local dignitaries. Even though it started a bit late from the set time, the wait was surely worthy it as the choirs that were showcasing came prepared and thrilled the audience with some performances of a lifetime. The show kick-started with all local choirs singing together as one big choir.

Later on, each choir showcased solo and got the audience dancing the night away. Ditsala Moreneng choir, which is a community based choir consisting of the youth, kick-started the night’s performance. They warmed and lit up the hall with their melodies. One of the beautiful things about traditional African gospel including Pentecost is the rhythm. The explosive sounds of the clapping and taping are what make clap and tap gospel unique. The music rendered by Dineo Tsa Tumelo choir that wore black and white was on another level.
