ABERDEEN NEWS — The main event that the Dr Beyers Naude Local Municipality (DBNLM) will be holding to celebrate Heritage Day this year will be a Clash of the Choirs in Aberdeen on Saturday, September 30.
The event will be held at the Aberdeen Library Hall, starting at 10:00. Choirs from all areas in the DBNLM are welcome to participate, and as many as possible will be contacted by the municipality with a formal invitation.
There will be three categories: community-based choirs; church choirs; and school choirs, which will be further divided into primary schools and secondary schools. The theme is “The Year of OR Tambo: Celebrating South Africa’s living human treasures and legends”, and choirs are encouraged, if possible, to choose songs to reflect this.
