This is one of my favorite non European based choirs.
The Drackensberg Boys Choir is an internationally known choir based in South Africa. It has it's own school that educates the chorister from ages 9-15. They sing many different genres of music, not just classical. Here are some links to some of their songs.
Shosholoza
Northern Lights
They also have their own youtube channel here:

Re: Drackensberg Boys Choir
Hmm, I can't find any details of the venues, times, ticket prices and so on... Is there a page somewhere that has all the details?

I see that Drakensberg singers just did an online version of 'Smile'. Completely different arrangement, of course, than Libera's, and did a nice job.

Re: Drackensberg Boys Choir
I have a ticket going free for Southwark if anybody is interested. Sadly, I won't be making it.
If I’ve got owt to say I says it, and if I’ve got owt to ask I asks it.
