And now for something different
Still Dream - a classical Zanne Stapelberg de Lange production - is on stage in Windhoek for one evening only.
No stranger to Namibia, the sensual opera star Zanne Stapelberg de Lange will grace the stage with her signature golden honey voice for one magical evening of classical music with her brand new production, Still Dream, on Thursday evening, 18 October.
“I have a deep affinity for Namibia and its people and always enjoy performing here. I find Namibians to be most appreciative and understanding of the feeling and message of the music that I live to convey,” Zanne says of her upcoming production.
