David Slater Music served lovers and fans of classical music to a night of opera and music in the duo of Gape Motswaledi and Tshenolo Segokgo.

Appropriately dubbed, 'A night of opera and music', Friday and Saturday nights turned out to be exactly nothing less.
Maitisong Music Room housed the incredible collaboration whose profiles make the heart of the small and not so popular genre in Botswana.

They soothingly breathed a silk ribbon of rhythm that covered the not spacious Maitisong Music Room.  Well-dressed as per the high standards of classical music, the pair offered a range of musicals and opera. The duet offering Porgy and Bess (Bess You Is My Woman Now) headlined Friday night. Porky and Bess is a folk opera by George Gershwin, before presentation Gape informed his audience that that was a tale of a man who married a striking beauty. However, he kept on wondering why him of all men, and Bess had to constantly assure him that theirs was timeless love!
