Description : As part of the annual Bastille festival in Franschhoek, the piano duo Zorada Temmingh and Elna van der Merwe compiled a special programme of music by French composers. Well-known for their wonderful arrangements of classical masterpieces, this once-off performance for La Motte has them jogging through 'Saint-Saëns' - 'Carnival of the Animals', while shortening Bizet's 'Carmen' to ten minutes and dancing along with a habañera, a bolero and a cake walk.

La Motte Estate's gates only open at 18h00. The La Motte Farm Shop will be open from 18h00 to 19h00. Concert-goers with dinner reservations at Pierneef à La Motte should be seated in the restaurant by 20h30.
