In Lesotho, song is more than just music - it’s a living, breathing part of the culture. Traditional lipina (songs) and motjeko (dance) have been passed down for generations, showcasing the collective spirit of the Basotho people. Whether in celebration, grief or everyday life, singing is a powerful form of expression for everyone in the country.
At Help Lesotho, all programs begin and/or end with a song, not only to honour the rich cultural heritage, but also to foster unity, uplift and create a safe, shared space for healing and connection. In Kate’s latest ‘Vlog from Lesotho’, you will listen to the vibrant harmonies of Basotho voices and witness the joy and strength that is generated from their music.
