BAROQUE 2000’s next concert will be at the Church of the Monastery, Mariannhill, on Sunday 22 November at 11am.
The Bloemfontein-based chamber choir, the Odeion Vocal Consort, directed by Lance Phillip, make their second appearance with the orchestra and will sing Dietrich Buxtehude’s “Herzlich lieb hab ich dich, o Herr” (with choir) and an anonymous Magnificat.
The orchestral works are Heinrich Biber’s Balletti Lamentabili a 4, Tomaso Albinoni’s Concerto in E op 5 no 9 and Henry Purcell’s exquisitely haunting Fantasia upon
one note, in which the great English composer superimposes melodies and harmonies upon a single note which sounds throughout the piece.
Tickets for this penultimate concert of Baroque 2000’s 2015 season are R120 at the door; parking is ample and secure. Contact Michel at sursouth@iafrica.com or 082 303 5241.
