New opera company to present its first concert
Sempre Opera was founded in March 2011 by a group of professional opera singers with the aim to create opportunities through which opera in South Africa can be promoted. A year and a few growing pains later, opera lovers in Gauteng will be able to attend the launch concerts in Gauteng on 10 March at the Atterbury Theatre and 24 March at the Roodepoort ProMusica Theatre.
Sempre Opera in Concert is possible with the generous financial support of Placecol - Dr Gobac. Gerrit Pienaar, designer and owner of Claris, will be dressing the divas for this début.
Deirdré Blignaut-Rautenbach (soprano), Aukse Trinkuniate (alto) and tenors Stéfan Louw and Chris Mostert among others, together with new singers who will make their début on stage, will perform duets and ensembles from famous operas. With this début, Sempre Opera will take the first step towards its ultimate vision – to perform full-length operas on stage which will showcase exceptional musicianship and high standards.
Tickets for 10 March at the Atterbury Theatre and 24 March at the Roodepoort ProMusica Theatre, both at 20:00, are available at Computicket for R120 per person and R90 for pensioners.
