Media Release

A dancing cat, a howling dog, and a vampire bunny. The perfect pet combination for any family. It is a dark and stormy night and Chester (the family cat) and Harold (the family dog) sit waiting for their owners to return home from the movies. Chester and Harold are more than just pets, they are good friends too. When the Monroes finally get home, they come bearing a surprise: they have found a bunny in the movie theatre. However, this is no ordinary rabbit … this is the extraordinary Bunnicula. When the family’s produce starts losing its juice, Chester thinks he knows what is causing the fantastic phenomenon. Bunnicula is a vampire! Or maybe Chester’s imagination is getting the better of him. Singing and dancing their way through this hilarious mystery, the furry friends find room in their hearts, and in their home, for one very unique bunny.

This unique musical Children’s theatre production is directed by DeBeer Cloete and features second-year Drama students in the South African premiere of Deborah and James Howe’s Bunnicula. The production runs from the 11th to the 14th op April at the Scaena Rehearsal Room on the UFS Campus and tickets are available through Computicket. The production is recommended for children 7 years and up and everyone young at heart.

Arnold Bosman Commemorative Concert

Arnold Bosman Commemorative Concert
6 February 2010
Anglican Cathedral (St. Georges Street)
19:00

On 6 Febraury 2010, the UFS Department of Muisc will present a special memorial concert in honour of Arnold Bosman, renowned conductor and pianist. It is fitting to present this concert to commemmorate Arnold’s death 5 years ago on 4 February 2005 in Italy. During this occassion, Arnold’s father, dr. Willem Bosman, will donate his son’s musical inheritance to the UFS. Arnold, a former South African, has developed, especially during the last decade of his life, as a diverse and prominent musical figure and as both performer and conductor he made a significant contribution to musical performance and research in Italy.

This special concert aims to highlight his stature, contribution and to commemorate his legacy. Therefore it has been compiled in such a way as to fittingly elucidate Arnold’s musical preferences and activities.

The first half of the programme consist of solo compositions and songs where a replica of a fortepiano (one of Arnold’s favourite instruments) will be used. Musicians who will perform include Deirdré Blignaut (soprano), Nicol Viljoen (fortepiano & organ), John Reid Coulter (fortepiano), Human Coetzee (cello), Lance Phillip (tenor) and Willie Viljoen (countertenor). In the second half of the programme, the ever popular Fauré Requiem will be performed by the Ars Nova Consort under the leadership of Lance Phillip with organist Jan Beukes.
