SUMMARY:Stellenbosch Madrigal Singers: Songs of Passage and Renewal
DESCRIPTION:Composers have long used the metaphor of “death” to express many different ideas: breathless moments of romance\, the peaceful end of day as twilight falls\, the quiet close of winter before spring’s awakening\, or the sweet surrender found in deep love. \n\n\n\nThese musical “deaths” are not endings but transformations – moments where one thing gives way to another. \n\n\n\nThe concert programme ranges from singing a new song to the Lord with Monteverdi and remembering Daniel’s miraculous escape from the lion’s jaws\, to the silly madrigals where infidelity meets its dramatic (and bloody!) end\, and wishes for a different kind of “death” shared with one’s true love. \n\n\n\nThe singers get nostalgic about the rolling green fields of Ireland and smile with the Beatles\, who once thought 64 was old. And they sing of the ultimate victory – the birth of a little baby through whom death and sin lose their power forever\, offering the promise of eternal life. \n\n\n\nJoin the Stellenbosch Madrigal Singers for an evening where contemplative songs are woven together with moments of joy and humour\, as they celebrate the ongoing gift of each new day we’re given to share.

SUMMARY:Die Vyftigers by Daisy Jones Bar
DESCRIPTION:Neil Sandilands\, Schalk Joubert\, Gian Groen en Abel Kraamsaal\, vier unieke stemme in die Afrikaanse musieklandskap klim saam op een verhoog om hul liefde vir Afrikaans en hul eie halfeeu lange reis te eerbiedig. \n\n\n\nDie Vyftigers is ’n musikale viering van die lewe\, taal\, stories\, en tyd. Dis ’n produksie wat eerlik\, rou en reguit is – vol liriek\, lag\, melodie en menswees. \n\n\n\nDie ontstaan van Die Vyftigers het begin tussen die appelboorde van Grabouw\, by Gian Groen se 50ste verjaarsdagpartytjie. Tussen kitare\, staalsnare en spontane samesyn\, het Sandilands die lig gesien: vier musikale vriende\, almal besig om die 50 mylpaal te takseer\, in dieselfde jaar wat Afrikaans 100 jaar oud word.  \n\n\n\nDié kreatiewe toeval kon eenvoudig nie geïgnoreer word nie en met net een oproep na elk\, was almal aan boord. So word Die Vyftigers gebore – ’n unieke kruispunt tussen taal en tyd. \n\n\n\nElke kunstenaar bring sy eie storie\, instrument en kleur na die verhoog en tussen hul vier loopbane is daar meer as 200 jaar se kreatiewe gravitas – elke noot en elke sin is deurdrenk met betekenis. \n\n\n\nDie Vyftigers is Vrydag 11 Julie by die Daisy Jones Bar buite Stellenbosch te sien. Die deure open om 17:00 en die vertoning begin om 20:00. \n\n\n\nKaartjies\, teen R280 elk\, is aanlyn deur Quicket te koop.
