Afrikaans Gospel singer, TV and radio personality, Pastor Ivan Siegelaar, passed away on Thursday (2 March) following a long battle with cancer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to a statement by Tygerberg 104fm, Siegelaar died at the age of 46 at Groote Schuur hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Siegelaar was born in Cape Town on 3 August 1970, into a family of four of whom he was the youngest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His singing talent was only discovered later in life while working at a local hospital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was sponsored to go for voice training and his incredible cross-over classical style opened the door for many singing engagements across the City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2013, he experienced a break-through in his career when Barbara Streisand\u2019s producers invited him to share the stage with her in Holland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Siegelaar\u2019s final contribution to the local Gospel music scene was a collaboration with fellow Gospel greats, Loyiso Bala and Neville D, which produced \u2018Great Hymns of Faith\u2019 on CD and DVD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
