On Saturday, visitors at the Ikeja City Mall converged in awe and admiration as popular choral group, City Choir, captured their attention with two unforgettable classic renditions to signal the imminent premiere of the ninth season of Nigeria’s biggest music reality show, Nigerian Idol.
The audiences were drawn from their respective hangout spots at the mall to the centre of attraction when the classical choir embarked on an entertaining procession with a sonorous rendition of the famous ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’ track by The Tokens
After that, the choristers ushered their impromptu audiences into another realm of dexterous melody when they switched to performing the evergreen ‘You Raise Me Up’ track by John Groban. Steeped in admiration and high emotions, the audience joined to sing along, while recording the memorable event on their phones.
At the height of bewilderment, as questions started to linger among the audience in a bid to ascertain the rationale for the performance, the City Choir ungirded their inner vests which revealed the sponsor of the iconic experience: DStv and GOtv, the organisers of the ninth edition of the Nigerian Idol.
The performance offered a sneak peek into what the audience can expect from the Nigerian Idol season 9, themed #DareToDream. Viewers can brace up for a combination of charismatic stage performances, vocal dexterity, showmanship, collaboration and many more, as the battle to emerge the next music idol begins on April 21.
