Most recently she joined the King of Amapiano, Kabza De Small, and the Red Bull Symphonic Orchestra for a one-of-a-kind performance at Gold Reef City.
The audience was treated to a 130-minute performance by the amazing group of artists, where they reimagined some of Kabza's iconic songs with the help of a 33-piece symphonic orchestra and an eight-piece choir.
While those in attendance raved about the performance, a few moments truly captured everyone's attention.

One might think that a conductor in front of an orchestra might act reserved, Pitse fully enjoyed her time on stage as she danced along.
While moving and grooving, she continued to do expertly do her job!
A video from the event was shared on TikTok and has since gone viral with viewers praising Pitse:
