Spring Picnic 2024

The first signs of Spring have arrived. Birds are singing just before sunrise, the early morning chill is starting to subside and the afternoons are warming pleasantly. September is around the corner and we invite you to join us at the Domus Dei church lawns in Blairgowrie for an afternoon of music with your friends, family and the Rand Symphony Orchestra.

Our featured soloist, Braam Van Tonder will showcase the trumpet as solo instrument with his performance of the Concerto for Trumpet and Orchestra by Oskar Böhme. Braam is a driven trumpeter specialising in performance, conducting and teaching in Pretoria, Johannesburg and as far afield as Grey College in Bloemfontein.

The orchestra, under the baton of Carel Henn, will entertain with a programme of polkas, waltzes and music from stage and screen that promises to pair exceedingly well with a plate of savoury snacks and glass (or 2) of wine.

We invite you to bring a picnic basket, cooler box, blanket and/or chairs and spend the afternoon with beautiful music in a family-friendly setting. Book on Quicket (Click here).
