Melkbosstrand High School Choir Festival: Harmony Beyond Words
This year, our festival theme is “Harmony Beyond Words,” deeply inspired by the mesmerising and transcendent sounds of Adiemus by Karl Jenkins. Come and celebrate the incredible power of music to unite communities, uplift spirits, and showcase the phenomenal choral talent of our region.

Featured Showcase Event
Blouberg Ridge Primary will be performing an original composition, which is a unique collaboration between the school’s music department and a South African duo (ABFAB) and a recording company based in Holland. A dedicated group of learners led by a passionate team of music educators, who will be joining forces for a spectacular featured performance. Together, they will present the world premiere of an original composition written specifically in the spirit of collaboration. This exciting debut promises to be one of the absolute highlights of the night!
