Mzansi Youth Choir spoke about how special it is to work with Coldplay.
"When we first performed with Coldplay, we could never have imagined it would lead us to this moment for the launch of their album Moon Music! 🌙✨," the choir said in a statement posted on Facebook.
"From our America’s Got Talent finals performance, to singing 'Fix You' live in front of thousands, every step has felt like a dream. And to think we were invited to join them again at the Rose Bowl and then record on two of their new tracks—Jupiter and Aeterna!
"Memories of lifetime made with Coldplay 🙏🏾,"
The choir went on to talk about translating 'We Pray' into a Zulu version.
"Most recently, we had the incredible chance to perform on QVC and put together a Zulu verse for “We Pray” just hours before the show. Talk about a whirlwind! 😅We’re so grateful for all these experiences and can’t wait to see what’s next. Here’s to more magical moments ahead! ❤️," read the statement.
Mzansi Youth Choir took to Facebook to let their fans know that they are back in the country.
"Back home in South Africa, ready to gear up for a busy and exciting festive season after an incredible adventure! If you missed our last post - we recently had the privilege of visiting the beautiful Serengeti in Tanzania, and it was a trip to remember. 🤩🎶From the breathtaking landscapes to the vibrant wildlife, we soaked up every moment off-stage, enjoying an unforgettable African experience," read a statement on Facebook.
"While our hearts belong to singing and performing, we’re so grateful for the fun, bonding moments in between. It's experiences like these that fuel our passion even more."
