The Cape Town Concert Series 2025 celebrates 70 years of music making with the return of acclaimed violinist Jack Liebeck who will bring all three Brahms Sonatas for violin and piano to the Baxter stage with pianist Megan-Geoffrey Prins.

British/German violinist, director and festival director Jack Liebeck, possesses “flawless technical mastery” and a “beguiling silvery tone” (BBC Music Magazine). Jack is the Royal Academy of Music’s first Émile Sauret Professor of Violin and Artistic Director of the Australian Festival of Chamber Music. Jack’s playing embraces the worlds of elegant chamber-chic Mozart through to the impassioned mastery required to frame Brett Dean The Lost Art of Letter Writing and he has performed with many of the world’s leading orchestras, conductors and chamber musicians. Jack’ fascination with all things scientific has led to two new concertos being written for him and regular collaborator Professor Brian Cox - Dario Marianelli’s Voyager Violin Concerto and Paul Dean’s A Brief History of Time commissioned by Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in commemoration of Professor Stephen Hawking.

The concert starts at 11am in the Baxter Concert Hall. The Baxter Bar and restaurant are open before and after and you are welcome to take your morning coffee into the hall to enjoy with the concert.
