Joachim Raff’s Sinfonietta No. 1 for Winds
Selection of movements from Handel’s Water Music Suite
Intimate concert setting at St Martini Church

The Cape Wind Ensemble Chamber Concert takes place at the historic St Martini Church on Long Street. This cultural event showcases the ensemble's dedication to performing high-quality wind and chamber music in an intimate setting. The group, established in 2023 by Faan and Kim Malan, consists of semi-professional and advanced amateur musicians from the local community.

The musical program for this concert includes Antonín Dvořák’s Serenade for Winds, celebrated for its lyrical writing for brass and wind instruments. Audiences will also hear the Sinfonietta No. 1 for Winds by German Romantic composer Joachim Raff. The performance concludes with three movements from George Frideric Handel’s Water Music Suite, a staple of the wind repertoire originally written for a royal procession.

Doors open for a 4pm start, and tickets are priced between R100 and R150. This event provides a rare opportunity to experience significant orchestral wind compositions outside of a traditional large concert hall.
