Lovers of big bands and Christmas songs will appreciate the carols, choristers and Christmas bands scheduled to ring in the festive season at the V&A Amphitheatre the week before Christmas.
Big bands return again on Wednesday, 23 December, as the Salvation Army Band takes to the V&A Amphitheatre stage at 6pm. With a proud musical history that extends over 100 years, the Salvation Army Band has produced many well-known local musicians, including Hugh Masekela.
Using music as the platform, the organisation reaches out to young South Africans to offer them an alternative to community challenges such as drug addiction and poverty. Wrapping up the V&A Amphitheatre festive season entertainment is the Cape Town Gospel Choir, performing for Waterfront visitors at 7.15pm on Wednesday, 23 December. Formed in 2010 and currently under the direction of Edinburgh University music graduate Colin Peckham, the Choir “aspires to the best in gospel music in the Western Cape”. From 6pm. Cost: Free
