Rectors Concert 23

The Vice-Chancellor's Concert at the University of the Free State (UFS) is a highly anticipated annual event that showcases the musical talents of the UFS community. It is a highlight on the university's social calendar, attracting music lovers, singers, performers, and anyone who appreciates amazing musical performances.

This year's concert is expected to provide another entertaining night of music for the audience of UFS staff, students, donors, and other members of the UFS and Bloemfontein community. 

Among the featured performers, the concert will host guest artist Tasché Burger, who gained recognition by winning the third season of The Voice SA in 2019.

Other performers gracing the stage include the Odeion String Quartet, comprised of Samson Diamond, Sharon de Kock, Jeanne-Louise Moolman, and Anmari van der Westhuizen; Thabo Hlongwane and Minette Bowen singing a duet; the Eunice Vitae Cantamus Choir from Eunice Girls' High School, directed by Retha Visser and accompanied by Anton Esterhuyse; the UFS choir, conducted by Werner Stander; Ella Kotze; and Naledi Mohapi
