Meditatio Sonorum (2026 Cape Town Baroque Festival - EVENT 5)

Join the newly formed Adamastor Consort for an immersive meditative journey through the soundscapes of the middle ages, Renaissance, and early baroque. The Adamastor Consort is an early music ensemble playing an eclectic selection of period instruments, with Emile de Roubaix (nyckelharpa), Rosamund Roth (viola da gamba), and Ralitza Macheva (baroque violin). For its inaugural concert, Meditatio Sonorum, the ensemble takes music from the middle ages through the early baroque out of its usual places of performance and invites you to experience it in a brand new way, in brand new surroundings. Be drawn into the sacred heart of the music of Hildegard von Bingen, Josquin des Prez, and frolic along with the many voices of William Byrd, Orlando Gibbons, Thomas Lupo and Henry Purcell, to name a few, and together with the musicians, experience music as introspection, journeying, meditation, memory, and play!Adamastor Consort: Emile de Roubaix (nyckelharpa), Rosamund Roth (viola da gamba) and Ralitza Macheva (baroque violin)Date: Sunday, 27 SeptemberTime: 18:30-19:30Venue: Sufi Temple, NewlandsTickets: R280, R240 (pensioners), R100 (learners/students) For more information, visit www.ctbaroque.co.za/festival.
