Join Baroque 2000 in memory of Simon Milliken

Join Baroque 2000 in memory of Simon Milliken

Date: 2018-09-28

The next Baroque 2000 concert will exceptionally be at St Mary's Anglican Church in Greyville, on Sunday the 7th of October at 3pm.

A Founder member (double bass) of the Ensemble back in 1998, Simon Milliken was brutally murdered last Friday 31 August in Burman Bush. The concert will be dedicated to Simon's memory.

The concert programme is entitled "Nature and Birds" and will include the Church's Bell-Ringers, a group of which Simon was an active member. It will befollowed by the moving "Carillon des Morts" by Michel Corrette. Evelien Ballantine will be the solo flautist of Vivaldi's concerto "Il Gardellino" (the goldfinch) and the Ensemble's Concertmaster (Ralitza Macheva - violin) will perform the "Spring" concerto from the Four Seasons by the same composer. She will also perform the moving "Les Pleurs" by Marin Marais. ElsabÈ Richter (soprano from Cape Town) will join in the programme with her glorious voice and perform the beautiful and acrobatic "Sweet Bird" Aria from GF Handel as well as "Pourquoy Doux Rossignols" by De Bousset.

The famous "Les Elemens" by JF Rebel will take the audience on an epic journey through earth, fire, wind, water, lighting and storms, featuring flutes, oboes, bassoon and some percussion.

Tickets are R150 at the door. There is ample parking around the church and car guards will be on site.
