Concert at Grande Roche
2007-02-15
THE Drakenstein Hospice will host another great concert at the Grande Roche amphitheatre on Sunday 25 February at 18:00, featuring Cedric Vanderschrik.
Frank Sinatra’s ‘My way’, Jobim’s ‘The Girl from Ipanema’, Elvis’ ‘It’s now or never’, Jacques Brel’s ‘Seasons in the sun’ and ‘If you go away’, Piaf’s ‘Autumn Leaves’, Dale Wasserman’s ‘Man of the Mancha’, Gypsy Kings’ ‘Volare’ and Louis Armstrong’s ‘Mac the knife’. These songs all have one thing in common - they were all translated.
Cedric Vandenschrik has juggled with languages all his life. Born in a French/Italian speaking household he was then exposed to English and Afrikaans.
Who else but he, to uncover some of these unforgettable international songs?
In this sometimes informative, sometimes hilarious, highly entertaining rediscovery of some classic songs, Cedric, accompanied by musical wiz Dave Ledbetter, winds his way through this international musical landscape highlighting the plight of some of the lyrics in the translations.
Lost in Translation will surprise and dazzle you with its mixture of styles, languages and songs. It will make you rediscover songs in a different language and a different light.
Tickets are R250 per person, including wine and finger-food.
