Title: Sublime Sibongile....
Review: Sibongile Khumalo is one of the national treasures of South Africa and the possessor of a voice that deserves a much wider audience. With a repertoire that spans classical -- she has been an acclaimed Carmen -- jazz, and pop and a canny musical intelligence that enlightens even the occasionally too-sweet arrangements that burden a couple of the "Ancient Evenings" tracks, she rarely fails to dazzle.Having heard Khumalo live, I can attest that this album is only a limited introduction -- albeit a good one -- to a free-wheeling talent that has yet to be fully captured on record.
