Die Taal Van My Hart” was composed by Stef Bos, a well-known Dutch singer songwriter who has wide appeal and great popularity in SA. The album was nominated for a SAMA award and the track is still played regularly on Radio Sonder Grense. All of the arrangements are all from the pen of musical mastermind Riaan Steyn.

This is Killers in Our Midst, where we investigate lifestyle diseases and the effects it has on people and their day-to-day lives. This week we meet Peter Mangiagalli. He was diagnosed with coronary heart disease and is at risk of a heart attack. In Peter’s case, it sounds like surgery is the only option to prevent the inevitable. Watch as Peter makes some life-changing decisions in order to prevent further complications.

Dr. Wilhelm Lichtenberg is one-of-a-kind. He’s a Cardiothoracic Surgeon by day, performing life-saving heart transplants in Cape Town. After hours, the Doctor swaps his scalpel for a microphone, performing as a classical vocalist.

The Cape Heart Surgeon, Dr. Wilhelm Lichtenberg, has come to be a praised musician known as ‘South Africa’s Singing Surgeon’.

South Africa’s Singing Surgeon believes in the power of music to inspire South Africans to stand together and support one another through these difficult times. He has created his latest single, a rendition of the traditional prayer ‘Ndikhokhele Bawo’ (Lead me, O Father) in order to appeal to South Africans to do exactly that.

The doctor has recovered from the virus himself and his wife has been in his care since she was critically ill with Covid and spent more than a week in the intensive care unit with respiratory failure. The experience has strengthened his desire to motivate that we bring hope and guidance to one another.

His current project stands testament to that goal and it looks to raise funds for corrective surgery for indigent children with heart disease in Southern Africa.  He has joined a renowned global music icon in Steyn’s cover version of the Queen megahit song ‘Who Wants To Live Forever’ and it is due to be released in the next few weeks alongside the launch of the Young Hearts Africa Foundation.

Dr Wilhelm Lichtenberg lives in Cape Town, with his wife and three children, where he is in private practice as a Cardiothoracic Surgeon.

Dr Lichtenberg was born in Bloemfontein, and studied medicine at the University of the Free State, qualifying in 1991
