One Voice: An African Celebration Part 2
The chorus under Susan Steenkamp Swanepoel is beautiful and many members of the BTE VO1SS Opera Chorus are also members of the BTE VO1SS Academy which trains opera singers.

Forthcoming events are the BTE Spring Dinner Concert at the Blue Diamond Boutique Hotel on 26 October, Sunday Morning Concert: The Magic of the Musicals at the Drama Theatre, State Theatre, Pretoria, on 28 October, a Christmas Concert at the Linder Auditorium on 30 November, a Christmas Concert in the Park at the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens on 1 December and in the Pretoria Botanical Gardens on 8 December.
One Voice: An African Celebration Part 1
The concert was held at the Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City Casino. There is still a fairly strong resistance from people living north of Empire Road to cross to the south, and the sumptuous recreation of a Victorian theatre, for it really is Johannesburg’s most beautiful theatre, was not completely full.
Kruger National Park 2012
It was an impromptu decision to visit Kruger National Park
this past weekend. It still feels unreal
that I left the Kruger Park almost 18 years ago. It was wonderful to see some of the old staff
but even more rewarding to be remembered.
The highlight was undoubtedly the rain that fell and the amazing animals
we saw. Kruger National Park will always
be in my blood…
