Baroque 2000 hosts soprano Bronwen Forbay

Baroque 2000’s concert on Sunday, June 28 at 3 pm at the Church of the Monastery Mariannhill features Durban-born soprano Bronwen Forbay.

Forbay has won numerous international awards and prizes and now lives in the United States where she has a busy performing schedule. Opera magazine (UK) called her a ‘revelation… in ravishing voice, and showing singing of great subtlety, nuance and depth.’

In her collaboration with Baroque 2000 she will be soloist in Bach’s Cantata Non sa che sia dolore, BWV 209 for soprano, flute and strings. There are two other items on the programme: Handel’s Concerto Grosso Op 6 No 12 and Telemann’s “La Lyra” Suite.

Tickets will be R120 at the door; parking is ample and secure. For more information phone Michel at 082 303 5241 or email sursouth@iafrica.com
