Gudrun Weeks to star in Sunset Concert

Gudrun will on April 11 share her vast talent, being quite competent in playing a number of instruments, in a concert simply termed 'A Sunset Concert', a concert, which tells her life through music. The concert will be staged at Maitisong, Gaborone. Gudrun, who will be the main player of the night, will however share the stage with other players, playing an array of classical music carefully selected - each of which tells a little something about Gudrun's life.

Gudrun's passion for music dates back to the time she was six years when she learnt to play recorder in Germany.
"We four sisters would sit at the piano with father singing and playing two or three recorders: Watch Nachtigall (two recorders). My favourite Christmas carol was Es ist ein Reis entsprungen (violin trio). We walked every Sunday, taking the train to some nearby village and sang hiking songs: Es Toenen die Lieder, a round," she recalled. She learnt to play the piano and violin at nine years of age.
