Baroque 2000 will stage its Season Opening
Concert on Sunday, March 31, 2019, at 11h30 at the Church of the Mariannhill
Monastery. This concert will open a series of 8 performances usually taking
place on the last Sunday of the month.
This first performance will consist of
works by two of the great Masters of baroque music, Johann Sebastian Bach,
(Overture Suite No1 in C major BWV1066); and Georg Frideric Handel (Concerto
Grosso Op3 No5 in D minor HWV316), as well as the Symphony in Trio in G major
Op2 No5 by Nicola Porpora, Arcangelo Corelli’s Concerto Grosso in D major Op6
No4, and a unique composition by contemporary composer Federico Maria Sardelli
(Concerto for strings in D minor) who writes music in the typical baroque
style. This concert promises to be a very festive musical experience having on
stage additional wood wind instruments augmenting the main core of traditional
string players and harpsichord.
The concert will take place at 11h30 on
March 31 at the Church of the Mariannhill Monastery. Tickets R150 at the door. Ample
and safe parking is available and the Monastery Tea Garden is open for coffee/tea
and light lunches.
Those wishing to subscribe at the fee of
R1,200 for 8 concerts should contact Michel on email: sursouth@iafrica.com or
