Richard Cock’s 75th Birthday is celebrated through awe-inspiring sacred music in this unique concert programme. Two choirs will be leading the audience participation in singing different styles of music in different languages: Praise and Worship, Meditation and Prayer, African and Alternative, Celebration and Koinonia.

The RCME Winelands Choir will be joined by the Tygerberg City Choir for this wonderful joyful music and will be accompanied by an eight-piece instrumental ensemble: Maryke Lintvelt on violin, Linda de Villiers on flute, Marelise Diener on cello, Paul Loeb van Zuilenburg on trumpet, Reghardt Kühn on trombone, Winand Grundling on piano/organ, Mario Nell on organ/piano and Schalk Wasserman on percussion and double bass. Our soloist for the afternoon is the young and upcoming Erin Beck.

Songs of Praise will be held only once in the Western Cape this year.
