Franschhoek Classical Music Festival in Franschhoek

A range of classical music events at some of Franschhoek’s finest eateries and the beautiful Dutch Reformed Church, with all proceeds donated to local charities.

One can hardly imagine a more relaxing and inspiring way to spend a weekend than one filled with music in the Cape winelands in the late Spring. The Franschhoek Classic Music Festival taking place from 28 to 30 October will bring together excellent musicians and a variety of classics and world music to Franschhoek for a joyous weekend of recitals and chamber music initiated by well-known pianist Christopher Duigan.

The artists participating in this year’s festival are the celebrated US pianist Bryan Wallick, the well-known Stellenbosch-based cello and piano duo Peter Martens and Luis Magalhães, German guitar virtuoso Ulrich Busch, London-based saxophonist and clarinettist Joanne Rozario, soprano Lente Louw, Bulgarian-born accordionist Stanislav Angelov, baritone Federico Freschi and of course Duigan himself.

The events take place in beautiful surroundings, and in some cases include meals in historic and exclusive settings.
