Four South African Opera singers are currently in Latvia competing in the 2018 International Hans Gabor Singing Competition.
Cape Town Opera’s Young Artists Martin Mkhize and Frances du Plessis, UCT Opera School alumni Bongiwe Nakani and Ané Pretorius as well as Thando Zwane, former TUT opera student reached the competition’s final rounds which take place June 3 through June 10, 2018 at Dzintari Concert Hall in Jurmala, Latvia. South African opera singers annually feature prominently in the Belvedere Singing competition finals; following Levy Sekgapane’s first prize in 2015, Noluvuyiso Mpofu came second in 2016 and CTO’s Mandla Mndebele took 3rd prize in 2017. We’re so proud of our singers and wish them all the very best. #BelvedereCompetition
