KZNPO SUNDAY SINFONIA

The KZN Philharmonic will present a Sunday Sinfonia concert at St Thomas’ Church in Musgrave on October 3. This select series of classical concerts take place for an hour on Sunday mornings to whet the classical appetite of varied audiences.

Sabine Baird, principal flautist of the KZN Philharmonic, will perform a Flute Concerto under the baton of the orchestra’s resident conductor, Naum Rousine, who is also the composer of this piece. Sabine began her music studies in Germany. Since 2000, she has performed as first flute with all major orchestras in the Gauteng region. She joined the KZN Philharmonic Orchestra in 2005 and was appointed principal flute in 2006.

Naum Rousine’s debut as a conductor with the KZN Philharmonic was in a concert which premiered his own Flute Concerto in 1994. The scope of his work encompasses chamber, symphonic, ballet, musicals, operatic and choral works, as well as education and development programmes with the KZNPO.

Also featured in the programme will be Mozart’s Serenade No.11 in E-flat major.

The Sunday Sinfonia concert takes place at St Thomas’ Church in Musgrave at 11h30 on October 3. Tickets R40 (R25 students) at the door.
