Odyssey Of An African Opera Singer (Paperback) Musa Ngqungwana
An inspiring story of one mans rise from poverty and oppression to success and fame in the international world of opera... It is a difficult undertaking for any human to escape the cycle of poverty, but to do so from one of the worlds most complex political systems, with a brutal history of segregation and deprivation, is nothing short of a miracle. Yet Musa Ngqungwanas story doesnt end there. Not only did he manage to extricate himself from his impoverished past, but he found his way to the great opera houses of the world, attaining immense success in an affluent art form that bears no resemblance to his upbringing or culture. Musas life and career are proof that any human can overcome the devastating effects of discrimination and poverty. Odyssey Of An African Opera Singer chronicles Musas journey from the townships of South Africa to the world stage. It is a story of hope, showing how humans, no matter their situation, have the opportunity to claim their gifts, develop them and use them to help others in need. A captivating story that will inspire anyone who has ever had a dream... |
