Young SA artists give thanks to health-care and essential workers

Young SA artists unite to create The Ultimate South African Song Medley to thank health-care professionals and essential workers.

An upbeat medley compiled by young SA artists is something for all South Africans to enjoy.

Young South African artists have joined together, from their individual homes and via technology during #lockdown, to record The Ultimate South African Song Medley, to thank all the health-care professionals and other essential workers who are putting their lives at risk on a daily basis to keep the rest of us safe.

Adcock Ingram OTCs, sponsors of Brave Campaign in association with Stageworx Performing Arts School, released a video of the song to not only thank our ‘heroes who don’t wear capes’, but to also uplift the nation through local music.

The Ultimate South African Song Medley integrates 28 of the most instantly recognisable classic South African songs from music icons across diverse genres from the last 50 years, woven into a seamless tapestry by music arranger and maestro extraordinaire Bryan Schimmel, and performed by 50 students and alumni from Stageworx Performing Arts School in Johannesburg.

Sit back, relax, enjoy and give thanks with them to essential and health-care workers.
