CLASSICFEEL ‘GRAHAMSTOWN GROOVE’



Vintage Fashion, Jazz and Poetry – these are the May highlights for the popular arts magazine, Classicfeel.

A passion for fashion? South African fashion legend Chris Levin, in conjunction with Strauss & Co., is hosting South Africa's first-ever vintage couture auction. Classicfeel takes a look at the man behind the “ostrich feather cape” designed for Elizabeth Taylor.

For Jazz lovers there is an up-to-date programme featuring great Mainstream Jazz, Afro-Jazz, Modern Jazz, Blues, Funk and World Music that takes Classicfeel to the Standard Bank Jazz festival at the National Arts Festival in June/July in Grahamstown. For the Classical fan, Classicfeel meets with one of Africa's premier Orchestras, the KwaZulu-Natal Philharmonic Orchestra, as they discuss their Winter Symphony Season, which includes hosting acclaimed American violinist Sarah Chang in South Africa.

Classicfeel also speaks to Indra Wussow, curator of the What Is Poetry? Festival currently taking South Africa and Zimbabwe by storm.

This May, Classicfeel is full of music, arts, culture and lifestyle - just the way readers like it! Subscribe easily at http://classicfeel.co.za/subscribe/ or find Classicfeel at Exclusive Books or CNA.
