''My Dream – African Sounds'' is a 2008 release by the South African groups Ladysmith Black Mambazo and the SABC Choir. It was released on 30 September 2008. The album is a collaboration of both isicathamiya and choral music. ''My Dream – African Sounds'' features songs composed by Mambazo founder, lead singer, and director Joseph Shabalala, and leader of the SABC Choir Thulasizwe Nkabinde. Original Mambazo songs (such as "Iqome Kanjani", "Shintsha Sithothobala", and "Angimboni Ofana Naye") as well as SABC Choir standards (like "Plea for Africa", "Uhembelinye", and "Buya Lindiwe") are included on the album, which melds both Zulu vocal music (isicathamiya) – made famous by Mambazo – and gospel choral musics by having both groups sing each song together. The one exception is "Okuhle Hle", sung entirely by Mambazo. The album came together when Mambazo were on tour in the US in March 2007; South African Broadcasting Corporation executive Joyce Dube saw the group in a New York performance and approached them with the idea of recording a gospel/traditional album with the SABC Choir.〔Sowetan Online, ''Magical fusion of dream African sounds'' () (12 December 2008).〕 Arrangements were made, and the album began to come together a year later in the South African Downtown Studios.〔Sowetan Online, ''Magical fusion of dream African sounds'' () (12 December 2008).〕 ==Track listing== # "Okuhle Hle" (composer: Joseph Shabalala) # "Uhembelinye" (Thulasizwe Nkabinde) # "Buya Lindiwe" (Thulasizwe Nkabinde) # "Emarabini" (Thulasizwe Nkabinde) # "Iqome Kanjani" (Joseph Shabalala) # "Plea for Africa" (traditional / arranged by Thulasizwe Nkabinde) # "Eduze neNkosi" (Joseph Shabalala) # "Angimboni Ofana Naye" (Joseph Shabalala) # "Shintsha Sithothobala" (Joseph Shabalala) # "Kungawo Amandla" (traditional / arranged by Thulasizwe Nkabinde) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「My Dream – African Sounds」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
