The Modimo Trilogy - Gala 2023 - Stanford Talisman

Описание: "The Modimo Trilogy" is comprised of three hymns originally performed by the Soweto Gospel Choir in South Africa; "Modimo" and "Ke Na Le Modisa" sung in Sotho, and "Izwi Lahlab'Inhliziyo Yami" in Zulu. The trilogy is religious, opening with “Modimo,” a song of wonder at creation, transitioning into "Izwi," a soulful confession of sin and proclamation of grace, and concluding with “Ke Na Le Modisa,” a traditional South African interpretation of Psalm 23.

In Talisman, we perform The Modimo Trilogy to celebrate a sense of gratitude. For most, if not all of us, it is the first song that called us to Talisman. In this journey of remembrance and history, we pay homage to our own roots, the start of the group of friends we are able to sing and spend time with and love.

Stanford Talisman is a student-led a cappella group at Stanford University dedicated to sharing stories through song. This has become our mantra as we strive to respectfully give voice to the vast collection of human stories told through rich and vibrant song. We appreciate the great challenge of responsibly engaging with the genuine roots of the songs we sing and are committed to bringing these songs to life as best as our abilities allow.
