Heavenly Harmony Choir, HHC, was officially launched on Saturday 30 May 2026 with a vibrant concert at The Dutch Reformed Church in Harare. The event, themed “Pursuing Horizons”, introduced the newly formed choir to the community and to Zimbabwe at large.
Formed in 2025, HHC wasted no time making its mark. Earlier this year the choir entered the Tiro Mupane competitions and clinched 3rd position nationally. While they didn’t qualify for the finals, the result was hailed as remarkable for a choir only months old.
A celebration of unity through music
The launch concert brought together choirs from across denominations. Salvation Army Zimbabwe Territorial Youth Band opened with ecstatic brass, delivering Worship Medley, In Christ Alone – Euphonium Solo, Holy Forever by Marcus Venables, Call Of The Gospel by Martin Cordner, and Ala Manera by Paul Sharman. Their crowd favorite was Motherland.
Glorious Melodies Choir followed with well-loved choruses Ndendende, Mweya Mutsvene, and Ayavhuma Lamasabatha, reimagined in a unique, beautiful style. Heavenly Praises Choir then offered spiritually moving pieces Jerusalem Musha wangu and Nyangwe zvichirema.
Majestic Chorale’s highlight was the debut performance of Ngatidananeyi, an original composition by Devotion Mukundwa. The song, a call for love and unity, was performed for the first time at Pursuing Horizons and drew heartfelt applause. They also presented Inkele Morena by Holy Family Choir.
HHC takes the stage
The hosts delivered four powerful pieces: Chinyarara Moyo wangu arranged by Makhosi Nkiwane, Deborah Governor’s Remember Me, Marshall Muchaneta’s Hwayana raMwari, and Bongani Magatyana’s Ubizo.
The concert closed with all choirs combining voices for two cross-denominational choruses: Mwanangu Usatya from the Methodist Church and Hosanna from the apostolic sector. The moment underscored the concert’s message music transcends denominational lines and unifies people.
With its strong debut and national competition result, Heavenly Harmony Choir signals ambitious horizons ahead. If Saturday’s harmony is anything to go by, Zimbabwe’s choral scene has a new voice to watch.
