SUMMARY:Salsa Baroque – 17th and 18th century music from Latin America and Spain (Thu\, 20 Nov)
DESCRIPTION:The Cape Town Baroque Orchestra\, in collaboration with the Cape Town Concert Series and singers of Lutesong Consort\, invites you on a dazzling journey where baroque music from the Old World meets the vibrant rhythms of the New World. Salsa Baroque celebrates the fusion of European polyphony with the infectious dances of Latin America\, born from the meeting of Spanish\, African\, and indigenous traditions. From the lively chaconas and jácaras of Spain to the spirited villancicos of Mexico and Bolivia\, this program bursts with energy\, colour\, and rhythmic vitality. The programme will be directed by Canadian recorder and baroque flute virtuoso\, Matthias Maute\, and it will also feature the African premiere of his newly created recorder concerto\, using material by Padre Antonio Soler (1729-1783)\, with Maute as soloist. \nCape Town Baroque Orchestra: Annien Shaw\, Ralitza Macheva (baroque violins)\, Emile de Roubaix (baroque viola)\, Rosamund Roth (viol)\, Henrike Kovats (baroque double bass)\, Uwe Grosser (baroque guitar)\, Lilavan Gangen (percussion) and Erik Dippenaar (harpsichord/organ). \nLutesong Consort: Vasti Zeeman-Knoesen (soprano)\, Lente Louw (alto\, Lutesong Consort Artistic Director)\, Jason Atherton (tenor) and Keaton Manwaring (bass). \nDate: Thursday\, 20 November 2025\nTime: 19:00\nVenue: Baxter Concert Hall\, Rosebank\nTickets: R280 (regular)\, R230 (pensioners)\, R100 (learners/students)\, available on Webtickets. \nEnquiries can be directed to info@ctconcerts.co.za. \nBOOK HERE

SUMMARY:BAROQUE KEYS (Event 2 - 2026 Summer Baroque Season) - Cape Town Concert Series collaboration
DESCRIPTION:During 2026\, the Cape Town Concert Series presents a season of concerts focused around its Steinway Grand Piano\, which turns 65 this year and is considered one of the finest recital pianos in the country. \nTo set the scene for this piano-focused season of concerts\, the Cape Town Baroque Orchestra’s Artistic Director\, Erik Dippenaar\, presents a solo recital that takes the audience on a journey through the history of the keyboard instruments that existed before the piano. Dippenaar will play several early keyboard instruments\, including harpsichords in two different styles\, an octave spinetto and a copy of a 16th-century regal. The repertoire ranges from the 1560s until the 1770s\, including popular harpsichord works such as Handel’s Harmonious Blacksmith variations and Couperin’s Les Barricades Mystérieuses\, but also lesser-known pieces that show off the variety of textures and colours of early keyboard instruments. Scroll down for the full programme. \nAudiences will have the unique opportunity to explore the instruments on stage after the performance. \nDo not miss the opportunity to experience this unique and varied recital! \nBOOK HERE\n*** \nThis is Event 2 in our 2026 Summer Baroque Season.
