Durban City Hall: Final Concert
The KwaZulu-Natal Philharmonic Orchestra has one concert left of its Spring Season in the Durban City Hall: on Thursday
The Spring Season ends on 16 November in a concert celebrating cello and voice, conducted by Daniel Boico. Rossini’s Semiramide Overture opens the programme. One of the two featured pieces is Camille Saint-Saëns’ Cello Concerto No. 1 in a minor. It offers a superb solo platform for the KZN Philharmonic’s Associate Principal Cellist, Aristide du Plessis.
Haydn’s masterwork and paean to nature, The Creation, a score infused with a life force that swiftly ensured its honoured place in the annals of choral singing. It will be performed by a stellar line up of South African vocalists, and the Clermont Community Choir, which celebrates its 25th anniversary of Choral Music Making.
