The theme of tonight’s event was ‘Water’ to highlight the topical issues facing us regarding water. Each table had a different expression of water decoration and the event was perfectly situated along the Vaal river while I added some ‘water music’ to the occasion.
Water is currently a very topical issue in South Africa with our current drought conditions. Water is precious!
Wedding season continues as the long Summer months lazily stretch on. This wedding event was at the Hertford Hotel in Lanseria.
The venue has a serene all-white chapel which is where this photo was taken. A lovely couple and a beautiful venue, made the day a treat!
Tucked into the valley of the majestic Berg mountains this lovely spot is a perfect way to start off the new year. This event is for a company setting their compass for the year. I too am looking forward to a walk in the fresh mountain air when my violin performance is done.
Over a glorious sunset on a peachy day in Johannesburg, car fundis gathered on the rooftop of Sandton City for the Land Rover/Jaguar Two Icons Tour.
Performing violin on a raised platform on top of one of Sandton’s sky-rises felt like being on top of the world!
Tonight is the night, catch Married at First Sight to view the wedding ceremony of the current contestants.
The venue, Faircity Roodevallei and the décor is superb and the whole event took an interesting turn.
Tune in to Lifetime Channel 131 at 20H50 to see what happened!

Philips Live this week was an inspiring activation by Philips of their Access to Care units that they are rolling out to service remote areas.
This opening sequence of visuals and live violin performance portrayed the dynamic and live aspect that new technologies are bringing to healthcare.
Recycling was the theme of this event for Coca Cola’s school recycling awards sponsorship. Various schools and communities demonstrated out-of-the-box creativity on how to re-use and up-cycle waste materials found in their environment. In keeping with the up-cycling theme, I brought along my Tin Can violin which is made solely from reclaimed materials and yet plays like real violin. To complete the look I had a dress made up with hand-cut plastic bag trim. It was such a pleasure to meet some of the kids who are changing mindsets in their communities about waste.
The day ended on a poignant note though, as I was pulling out of the inner-city venue, thinking about outfits made from reclaimed materials, my eye spotted a homeless man just outside the venue, wearing nothing but 3 plastic bags…for some, recycling is not a choice.
My Tin Can Violin is a one of a kind instrument made […]
A Night of a Thousand Stars was the theme of this show for a local company awards evening. So in keeping with the brief, we decided to light up. Sax and violin lit-up, costumes sparkled and our eyes twinkled with the light-up/crystal masks.
Tonight’s venue at St Georges Hotel was a a perfect backdrop for the Red Carpet Violin Act. Gorgeous high-vaulted archways set the tone for the a glittering evening.
