Memeza Africa is a powerful fusion of African and Canadian music, spirit and culture. The intensely energetic and moving performance combines original Canadian compositions with traditional and original African compositions to create a unique musical experience that leaves audiences emotionally charged and moved to tears. This spirited ensemble features spectacular vocals and jaw-dropping dance performances with traditional drums and acoustic guitar in an unparalleled blend of styles and sound.

The African members of this multi-talented group originate from Soweto, which is South Africa's largest black community - alive with a vibrant energy and rich in culture and history. Designed to segregate the black community during the apartheid era, the resilience and spirit of the people triumphed and brought them together, making Soweto the home of South African freedom music.

Memeza Africa not only gives members the opportunity to showcase their talents, but offers the potential to provide an income in a community where the unemployment rate is staggering. Employment for one choir member directly impacts an average of seven to ten people as when one earns a living.
