Rhodes Orchestra

Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 Orchestra (RUO)

Since 2015, the Rhodes Orchestra has presented one annual symphonic performance in the Guy Butler Hall, Settlers Monument, Makhanda (Grahamstown). Student musicians are flanked by professional performers during rehearsal and the performance, thereby gaining invaluable professional input and guidance throughout the event. The concert programmes showcase the Music Department’s orchestral and vocal students in selected excerpts from Classical repertoire. A priority for each performance is the presentation of a South African composer.

In 2019, Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 collaborated with Free State 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 in a mass orchestra consisting of the FSYO and RUO. Guest artists included soloists Samson Diamond (violin), Catherine Foxcroft and Garreth Robertson (piano), Masi Mbube (baritone) as well as the RUV and RUCC.
