Join The Cape Wind Ensemble for an unforgettable concert experience

The Cape Wind Ensemble conducted by Dr Faan Malan from Rondebosch will be giving their second performance this year in the Corpus Christi Church in Panorama on Sunday, June 22 at 4pm.

Dr Malan said this performance will form part of a series of concerts which are recorded live for their newly established YouTube Channel. “This venture aims to feature first class wind ensemble repertoire by both local and international composers,” he said.

The group, which does their rehearsals at Pinelands Community Hall, consists of 45 members who are amateur and semi-professional, coming from various areas like Fish Hoek, Pinelands, Durbanville, Tyger Valley, and Bellville.

Dr Malan mentioned they will be playing major works such as Symphonic Gershwin arranged by Warren Barker, Symphonic Marches by Richard Rogers and The Three Bears Suite by Eric Coates. Two members of the ensemble, euphonium player Russell Davies and the exceptional saxophonist Sean Acker will appear as soloists with wind ensemble accompaniment.

Tickets are available from Webtickets at R150 per person.
