MOSSEL BAY NEWS - The Carpe Musicam! Orchestra, Choir and Youth Orchestra gave a rousing performance in the Mossel Bay Town Hall on Sunday, 20 August.
It was their Festival Concert, with a special ticket price offered because it was part of the Mossel Bay Arts Festival.

The town hall was packed, with guests spilling over on to the raised gallery at the back of the hall.
The energetic medley of tunes from the Mamma Mia movie was a highlight. It was truly toe-tapping stuff.
The choir showed its prowess during the Mamma Mia medley especially.
El Gato Montes by Manuel Panella also raised the spirits and the spot of Spanish dancing went down well with the audience.
Another highlight was Wonderful World.
The Carpe Musicam! concerts are truly relaxed, friendly and accessible for those who are not music buffs. Conductor Norman Carless makes everyone feel at home with his charming, humorous introductions of the items.
