Hare !khub ti (Religious Nama/Damara Song)

Widely celebrated for performing songs from across Namibia with young singers from diverse backgrounds, the National Youth Choir of Namibia will be a highly boring tape for many of you. It's interesting and wonderful at times and for that we'll focus our gaze for a moment.

I haven't listened to it yet so I can't really say whether the music itself is boring but if nothing else this is the first time I'll have heard any Namibian music and for that I thank you.
Finally I see some music on here from my country of birth. This is beautiful. Did you ever post any other music from Namibia?
Many Thanks, Daniel
Many Thanks, Daniel

One of the most beautiful traditional releases that I have listened to IN YEARS ! Thank you so much for posting it. It surely is screaming me to download ANY other material sourced from Namibia. I am amazed, will play this tons of times, it's mesmerizing !
