Recorded with Basil ‘Manenberg’ Coetzee, Paul Michaels, Robbie Jansen, Morris Goldberg and Monty Weber, Mannenberg was released in June 1974. The piece was composed against the backdrop of the District Six forced removals. It is named after the Cape Town township of Manenberg, which was established when the residents of District Six settled there. Mannenberg stands out as a uniquely South African piece: it blends together South African musical forms (marabi, mbaqanga and langarm) and American jazz. The song became a rallying cry against the injustices of apartheid and the particular destruction it wrought on communities. With its upbeat melodies and buoyant hook, the piece also serves a celebration of the resilience and endurance of humanity in the face of the brutalities of the apartheid regime. Mannenberg is arguably South African jazz’s most famous export, and still stands as an anthem of hope and of fortitude for oppressed communities. It also serves as a reminder of the inhumanity of what this country and this city endured, and of the legacies of that inhumanity. 3 NATIONAL ANTHEM Nkosi sikelel’ iAfrika Maluphakanyisw’ uphondolwayo, Yizwa imithandazo yethu, Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo. Morena boloka etjhaba sa heso, O fedise dintwa la matshwenyeho, O se boloke, O se boloke setjhaba sa heso, Setjhaba sa South Afrika – South Afrika. Uit die blou van onse hemel, Uit die diepte van ons see, Oor ons ewige gebergtes, Waar die kranse antwoord gee, Sounds the call to come together, And united we shall stand, Let us live and strive for freedom, In South Africa our land. 4 DISTINCTIONS IN THE FACULTY OF COMMERCE The BCom and BBusSc degrees may be awarded with distinction in a subject, where the student achieves a weighted average of at least 75% in a group of courses in, or related to, that subject (in some cases the average mark required is 80%) in the degree, where the student achieves a weighted average of 80% in all courses.
