Autumn Reflections
April 19, 2026

A violin, flute and piano recital was just what we needed to warm up a rainy, Sunday afternoon in the heart of April. πŸ‚πŸͺž

While on school holiday in the Cape, violinist, Olga Korvink and pianist, Bronwyn Raaths hosted a wonderful concert in aid of the FPMC Bursary Fund. Our very own, Matthew Lamprecht joined the talented duo on violin and flute. 🎻πŸͺˆπŸŽΉ

Thank you to our wonderful audience, and to Olga, Bronwyn and Matthew for sharing their time and talents. Many thanks to Mrs Inge Scott, for bringing everyone together, and dreaming up this special showcase of talent! 🎢✨

External Exams Awards Ceremony
April 16, 2026

We proudly honoured the top achievers who participated in practical and theoretical external music examinations last year. πŸŽ‰πŸŽΆ

Annually, our learners are enrolled in Trinity College of Music, ABRSM and UNISA external exams. For the last few years, we have hosted our own Internal/ External Examinations, to encourage more learners to participate in a similar exam setting.

At this year’s ceremony, the audience enjoyed the talents of saxophonist, Adriaan Nel and pianist, Lukas de Villiers. 🎷🎹

We extend our sincere gratitude to each dedicated educator and our community of parents/ guardians who are contributors to these wonderful successes!

Congratulations to all the recipients of 2025! πŸ‘πŸΌβœ¨

The Montreaux Jazz Festival
March 27 – 29, 2026

History was made in Franschhoek, when Montreaux met Africa in a celebration of the best global and local jazz talent! 🌎✨

It was an exhilarating first and extraordinary experience for one of our talented drummers, Caleb Dlamini, who created unforgettable moments on stage. πŸ₯πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

Caleb Dlamini and Friends were selected to open the festival, and certainly set the tone, and energy for the creative offerings that followed.

We’re exceptionally proud of this incredible highlight in Caleb’s young career, and know that there will be many more in the future! πŸš€βœ¨

March 23, 2026

One of our senior pianists, Lukas de Villiers was one of 12 finalists to participate in the prestigious Hennie Joubert Piano Competition, held at the Stellenbosch Konservatorium’s Endler Hall. 🎹🎢

Lea Prinsloo Solo Recital
March 22, 2026

The second solo recital in our series showcased Lea Prinsloo’s multi-talents, as a violinist, pianist and vocalist, accompanied by violin teacher, Mr Hadley Duminy. 🎢🎊

Lea, a Grade 12 learner this year, beautifully brought Bach, Wieniawski and Seitz, among others, to life. The haunting theme from Schindler's List by John Williams, a known favourite, tickled the spines...

We are grateful to the many influential teachers and proud parents who have shaped this young, talented woman over many years.

And we are exceptionally proud of the confidence, tenacity and tenderness that Lea greets us with this year, and know that a dazzling future is certainly up ahead! πŸš€βœ¨
