“Spring: the music of open windows.”
Music-lovers are invited to a Spring Classical Concert - an intimate afternoon in the company of the Durban City Orchestra (DCO) as they perform a magnificent spring-inspired programme of Haydn, Beethoven, Mozart and more, at two different concerts: the second of which is at Northlands Bowling Club on Sunday October 20 at 15h00.
The orchestra, one of the longest running orchestras in the country, has a complement of approximately 30 active members who get together weekly. The orchestra includes two accomplished professional musicians in Charl van der Merwe as Resident Conductor and Jitske Brien as Concert Master, joined by guest artists.
The programme is a carefully-curated programme of always popular classics:
Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana; Carmen Suite No. 1 by Georges Bizet; Beethoven's Ninth Symphony Finale; Symphony No.12 by Mozart; Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 88 and O mio babbino caro - a poignant aria from Giacomo Puccini’s 1918 opera Gianni Schicchi.
