Johan Botha (tenor) & Debra Voigt (soprano) Gala Concert

Johan Botha (tenor) & Debra Voigt (soprano) Gala Concert

Hailed by many as South Africa’s most famous vocal export, dramatic tenor Johan Botha is one of the world’s most sought-after singers.  Now residing in Vienna, Johan Botha returns to Gauteng, where he studied and made his stage debut (as Max in Weber’s Der Freischütz in Roodepoort in 1989) for one performance only at The Teatro at Montecasino on Saturday, 20 August 2011. Presented by Cape Town Opera and conducted by Sebastian Lang-Lessing the glorious romantic repertoire includes Verdi, Puccini, Leoncavallo and Lehár. The Johan Botha gala concert is a rare opportunity for opera-lovers to watch one of the world’s foremost singers live on stage in Johannesburg.

American operatic soprano, Deborah Voigt joins Johan Botha for a one-night-only gala concert in Cape Town at Artscape on Saturday, 28 August 2011. Widely recognised for their peerless performances in music dramas by Wagner and Strauss, Voigt and Botha have also enthralled audiences across continents in heavier roles from the Italian repertory, particularly in operas by Verdi and Puccini. Music by all four composers will be included in the programme of their Cape Town concert.

Accompanied by the Cape Philharmonic Orchestra  and conducted by Sebastian Lang-Lessing, this gala concert brings two internationally acclaimed opera superstars to the Mother City. Both singers have produced extensive and acclaimed discographies.
