Polytechnic Choir

Bio

Established in 1996, the Polytechnic Choir is a registered student society that has been the golden voice of the Polytechnic of Namibia. The choir performs at all official events of its institution. It has been counted among the top choirs in Namibia and has created a platform for talent formation, team building and professionalism. It is comprised of student and staff of the Polytechnic of Namibia. For one to join, one has to go through auditions facilitated by Michael Kisting, the conductor of the choir.

In June 2005, the choir went on a tour of South Africa, which resulted in a choir partnership with the universities of Potchefstroom and Pretoria. In November, the choir attended the National Theatre of Namibia (NTN). In 2007, they toured Botswana and were part of the Save Our Nation Anti-Corruption Campaign. In 2011 and 2012, they were part of the choral evenings held at the NTN. In that same year, they toured South Africa for the second time and shared the stage with Pastor Mthunzi Namba of Joyous Celebration Church. In September 2014, they won the first round of the Joyful Sounds Choir Competition.

The choir also performs at events such as graduation ceremonies, career fairs, HIV/AIDS campaigns, cultural festivals and the outreach programmes for the Office of the Dean of Students.
