Winelands Orchestral Festival 2013

Die Wynlandse Orkes Fees van 2013  het op die 2de en 3de Maart plaasgevind en was by Bridge House College in Franschhoek. Dit was `n aangename ervaring gewees. Hulle het die geleentheid gehad om saam met anders kinders van orals in die Wes-Kaap in `n orkes te speel en het ook van orkesspel geleer. Hulle het vir twee dae lank heeltyd geoefen in `n orkes vir die konsert wat toe op die Sondag-aand plaasgevind het. Drie van Jamestown Sounds se leerlinge het dit bygewoon, naamlik: Alicia Willemse (viool), Cameron Davids (viool) en Peter-John Hartnick (klarinet).

The Winelands Orchestral Festival 2013 took place on the 2nd and 3rd of March at Bridge House College in Franschhoek. This festival provided the opportunity for children from all schools in the Western Cape to come together with their instruments for a weekend. During this weekend they rehearsed orchestral pieces for a concert on the Sunday night. They recieved lessons on orchestral playing and became part of the Winelands Orchestra. Three of our Jamestown Sounds students took part, they were: Alicia Willemse (violin), Cameron Davids (violin) en Peter-John Hartnick (Clarinet).
