Sennheiser was used as part of Mr Mandela’s 90th birthday celebrations which was held at London’s Hyde Park. This was also the 20th anniversary of the Free Nelson Mandela concert staged at Wembley in 1988.

Organised by 46664, Nelson Mandela’s concert also raised funds for his 46664 campaign to fight HIV and AIDS worldwide. This was the fifth 46664 concert that Sennheiser has supported, continuing a long standing relationship with the charity, supplying microphones, wireless monitoring and full technical support.Both the artists and the huge audience were assured of enjoying every vocal nuance.

Several regular Sennheiser users performed at the show, including Annie Lennox, Leona Lewis and the Sugababes. All of the ‘visiting’ vocalists who performed with the show’s house band — including Amy Winehouse and Jamelia — used either e 935 wired or SKM 935 wireless vocal microphones.
