Capricorn Private Wealth Baroque Festival to unite Namibian musicians in symphony

The Capricorn Private Wealth Baroque Festival will again spotlight young Namibian musicians, performing alongside a full orchestra on Saturday, 12 April, and Sunday, 13 April 2025, at the Reformed Church, 3 Luther Street in Windhoek, starting at 19:00.The two-day festival hosted by the Namibian National Symphony Orchestra (NNSO) is supported by Capricorn Private Wealth to inspire passion and the thrill of live performance where young Namibian musicians showcase their talents and fuel their motivation to practice and perfect their craft. The concert will be conducted by Nezih Seckim from Turkey, who will perform his debut alongside the Namibian National Symphony Orchestra. To prepare for the event, artists practice their music and rehearse. He will make one big picture out of all the musicians at the rehearsals.Board member of the NNSO, Irmgard Rannersmann, said the event is a concert format that has been used for many years and shows incredible development. “The fast progress is amazing. In the meantime, some of the previous soloists are playing regularly in the orchestra. This year, it is theConcerto Grosso by a South African composer, which has never been performed in Namibia, and the pieces from “Beatles meet Baroque” will bring some nice surprises to spice up the programme,” she said.The festival will showcase 10 outstanding young soloists. Two adults, Jürgen Kriess and Deborah Haindongo, will join them and perform the Concerto Grosso Soli. The 30 musician’s orchestra will fill the venue with outstanding and vibrant sounds.Tickets for the Festival are available at webtickets.com.na and Pick’nPay. Adults and Children’s tickets cost N$220.00, and students and pensioners’ tickets cost N$140.00.
