About This Event

WITH cellists Peter Martens, Eddie McLean, Rosamund Roth, Matthias Remley-Ender, Dane Coetzee, Ashlin Grobelaar, Lynne Donson, Marcus Motaung and Siphamandla Moyake (soprano)Since the establishment of the Köln Philharmonic cello ensemble more than 50 years ago, cello ensembles have gained popularity through the decades. Today the 12 celli of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra constitute one of the most revered chamber music ensembles in the world. Now, the Cape Town Philharmonic Cello Ensemble is our very own home-grown derivative of this global phenomenon. The cello is the instrument closest to the human voice and like a choir, a cello ensemble is a versatile group with a vast repertoire ranging from Baroque masterpieces to icons from the silver screen. The recital is followed by a free music discussion with the artists upstairs in the Banqueting Hall.MET tjelliste Peter Martens, Eddie McLean, Rosamund Roth, Matthias Remley-Ender, Dane Coetzee, Ashlin Grobelaar, Lynne Donson, Marcus Motaung en Siphamandla Moyake (sopraan)Sedert die ontstaan van die Köln Filharmoniese Tjello-ensemble meer as 50 jaar gelede, het die gewildheid van tjello-ensembles oor dekades wêreldwyd toegeneem. Vandag word die 12 tjelliste van die Berlynse Filharmoniese Orkes as een van die mees hooggeagte kamermusiekensembles in die wêreld beskou. Die Kaapstadse Filharmoniese Tjello-ensemble bring nou ons eie plaaslike weergawe van hierdie wêreldwye verskynsel na die verhoog. Die tjello is die instrument naaste aan die menslike stem en, soos ’n koor, is ’n tjello ensemble ’n veelsydige groep met ’n uitgebreide repertoire wat strek van Barokmeesterwerke tot ikoniese musiek van die silwerdoek. Die uitvoering word gevolg deur ’n gratis musiekgesprek met die kunstenaars bo in die Banketsaal.
