Freedom Is Coming is an incredibly infectious celebration of hope and freedom from oppression and is coupled here with Hamba Vangeli (‚Spread the new word') for Soprano, Alto and combined men's voices along with a piano accompaniment. Pay attention to the dynamics - there are lots of opportunities for contrasts and a gradual build-up of texture, as well as chances for soloists to sing out. These two songs, along with Siyahamba and many others, also feature in L'Estrange's hit cantata Zimbe! Come sing the songs of Africa!
