Christmas at La Motte with Brittany Smith (soprano) and Esthea Kruger (piano)
In the spirit of Christmas, this voice-and-piano concert traces the story of Christmas through a selection of art songs, from the anticipation of Christmas to the wonder of the Nativity and the joyful proclamation of Christ’s birth. Featuring the timeless works of composers such as Strauss, Sibelius, Saint-Saëns, Massenet and Fauré, the programme invites audience members to marvel at the magic of Christmas and experience the spirit of the festive season – one of hope, peace and light.
Guests are welcome to enjoy a glass of wine and some light refreshments in the estate gardens between 17:00 and 18:00. The concert is presented from La Motte’s renovated Parshuis or Historic Red Wine Cellar and starts promptly at 18:00. Please note that seating is not reserved.
Make the most of your visit to the Franschhoek Valley and stay for dinner at the estate’s L’Ami Family Brasserie, a short stroll away from the concert venue. A special concert and dinner package is available at R945 and entails a concert ticket as well as a three-course menu with a glass of wine from the La Motte Classic Collection.
