Baroque 2008 was particularly successful, with some of the music being heard in South Africa for the first time. The orchestra was on top form, with some brilliant solos performed on the violin, viola, flute and oboe. Richard Cock and percussionist Brian Clarke provided some exceptional entertainment during the Musical Conversations. The weather was amazingly co-operative, with some cloud cover shielding us during the heat of the day, and cool evenings to keep the mozzies away at night. Thanks to everyone who contributed in one way or another to the weekend.

Our sincere thanks to Lawrie Poorter and Rodney Kretzschmar for providing us with these photographs.
