In 2023, Nombulelo Yende won an award at the prestigious Operalia competition. The soprano singer received the CulturArte Prize at the international opera competition, which was held in Cape Town.
Operalia was launched by Spanish tenor Plácido Domingo in 1993 to discover and help launch the careers of promising young opera singers.
Nombulelo is the sister of the opera singer Pretty Yende, who won first prize at Operalia in 2011, where it was held in Moscow. The two sisters have shared the stage on multiple occasions.
