PUBLIC PROFILE

HERMAN KLEINHANS
Die Poëtiese Stem van Suid-Afrika
Herman Kleinhans staan bekend as 'n kunstenaar wat die diepte van Suid-Afrikaanse musiek raak met sy sielvolle lirieke en melodieë. Sy huldeblyklied "Dankie" is 'n roerende ode aan moeders oor die hele wêreld, geskep tydens 'n tydperk van isolasie en onsekerheid. Die lied het nie net die harte van luisteraars verower nie, maar ook 'n ereplek op radiostasies landwyd ingeneem. Herman se musikale reis het hom van 'n ATKV-Cresendofinalis tot 'n bekroonde sanger en liedjieskrywer geneem. Sy eerste groot oorwinning was met die liedjie "Ek Sweer" in kykNET se Afri-Visie-kompetisie, wat sy talent vir skryf beklemtoon het. Sy samewerking in die duo TWEE het hulle die Ghoema-toekenning as die publiek se gunsteling-duo besorg. Kleinhans se musiek, gekenmerk deur sy organiese gevoel en universele temas, spreek tot die siel en skep 'n nuwe nismark in Afrikaans met sy poëtiese, boheemse en filosofiese lirieke. Kleinhans, wat tuis voel op die pad en in die hartjie van Patensie, bly 'n inspirasie vir vele met sy musiek wat die lewe in al sy skakerings vier. Hy is 'n ware ambassadeur vir Afrikaanse musiek, wat met elke noot en woord 'n storie van liefde, hoop en menslikheid vertel.
