Listen: 'Women of [South] Africa'

For Dreaming of: A Soothing Female Chorus

Listen: 'Women of [South] Africa'

Album


We love a good compilation of world singers–and Putumayo’s 2004 “Women of Africa” is one of our favorites–introducing us to a range of new voices we’d otherwise probably not hear.

Four female South African tracks are featured on this album. The tunes are light, happy, airy. I listen to them in the morning to brighten the day. 

Take a listen:

“Le Tshephile Mang” by Judith Sephuma

“Mfan’ Omncane” by Dorothy Masuka

“Mayihlome” by Sibongile Khumalo

“Vimba” by Women of Mambazo
