A big thank to Elretha Britz for her contribution to the arts and loyalty to the FSSO throughout the years!

Alexander Fokkens, FSSO Artistic Director & Conductor, with Elretha Britz of Volksblad

Messiah - Welkom: Thank you to Dulcie Harris from the Ernest Oppenheimer Theatre and all the people who came from the surrounding towns for the warm welcome and support. The show was a great success and rest assured the #FSSO will come back to Matjhabeng Local Municipality!

A well deserved standing ovation for the #FSYO members, soloist Samson Diamond and conductor Alex Fokkens.

The programme included Beethoven's Symphony 7, Romanzas 1 & 2, and Ingoma by our very own Hofmeyer, which the young musicians performed with such passion and impressive skill! Thank you to everyone that made the concert possible and the audience for making the event a memorable one!
