The Cape Town Concert Series truly lived up to its reputation of South Africa’s premiere recital and chamber music platform over the last year.
And in 2024 they begin with an additional ‘Extra’ concert featuring Gustavo Romero with an all Rachmaninoff programme at the Baxter on Saturday 6 January at 3pm.
Keeping the momentum going the Cape Town Concert Series officially starts the 2024 season in January with the welcome return of pianist Olga Kern, who will also be opening the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra’s Summer Festival on Saturday 13 January – 5pm.
The season continues with cellist Benedict Kloeckner in February performing with pianist Francois du Toit; highlights of the Franschhoek Chamber festival with members of the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra in March; Beethoven specialist Jan Jiracek von Arnim presents a piano recital of Beethoven and Chopin in April, and the season of 5 concerts ends in June with oboeist James Austin Smith.
Saturday 17 February – 11am – Cello Recital with Benedict Kloekner
Saturday 16 March – 11am – Chamber Music with members of the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra
Saturday 13 April – 3pm – Piano Recital with Jan Jiracek von Arnim

The series also pays tribute to two long serving patrons – Ben Rabinowitz and Norman Sulcas who sadly passed away this year. The Series will be dedicating concerts to them in 2024.
The Cape Town Concert Series thanks the Rupert Music Foundation for their continued support in helping subsidise ticket costs.
