Testimonials

“I just wanted to say thank you for organising the Imbube Singers for our concert at the Wigmore Hall, which was a great success. You will see the very enthusiastic response from the audience!”

Dr. Rebeca Omordia
Founder & Artistic Director, The African Concert Series

“Just a note to say the singers were absolutely amazing!! Made the day extra special, everyone loved them and really brought the SA flavour which we wanted to do to celebrate that side of the family – thanks for all your help!” Sarah Jordaan

“This is a note to say thank you for organising Imbube Singers to perform for us at Forty Hall in Enfield last Sunday. We loved their music and we received wonderful feedback from the audience. I will be in touch soon regarding our next collaboration.” Dr Rebeca Omordia

Just wanted to drop you a note to say how impressed everyone was with Imbube. Made a lot of the South Africans (including myself) very homesick and quite tearful, actually. They were wonderful and really got the party going by including people. I am glad I only used them for the reception in the end because it really was more suitable to that environment. Thanks again.” Pamela

Just wanted to pass on our heartfelt thanks to Luyanda and team.  They were really outstanding and we loved every minute.  More to the point … my mother would have loved it and I certainly don’t think Dunwich church has heard such a joyous music during a funeral. They were also such a lovely bunch of people and I wish I had had more time to speak to them. I hope they found their way home OK and felt they were sufficiently looked after. Thanks to you too.” Molly

I witnessed a splendid performance at the SA Chamber of Commerce Summer Drinks. Many thanks. Best regards, Claudio

A message from one Lennox to another! I just wanted to thank you so much for your patience and kindness yesterday…we got there in the end with the song arrangement. Thanks to your Bambelela section, the roof was pretty much lifted off the guildhall rafters! What a pleasure and privilege to work with you and your wonderful choir…sending love and appreciation from Annie..(The other L!) Xxx
