There’s Hahaha! Then there’s Ah Hah! And then there’s … the Ha!Man. A musical phenomenon, this multi-talented, former musical child prodigy will be back in Hermanus with a once-off performance on Saturday 24 August. The cello will never be the same again for anyone who has experienced this musical whirlwind.
Francois le Roux grew up in a traditional Afrikaans household, where his father was a dominee and his mother was a music teacher. But Francois was different. From a very early age, it was clear that he had music coursing through his veins. Improvising on the piano from the age of four and acting as the church organist from the age of ten, he became a professional musician and performer in his early twenties. With a passion for exploring new ways for music to reflect emotion, he combined his classical training with a wide array of musical influences to develop a mind-altering experience. Although he plays a variety of instruments, he has taken the cello to amazing new heights of musical expression.
From busking on street corners to conducting major orchestras and accompanying top classical singers, Francois is a truly inspirational troubadour of the 21st century. His Ha!Man show has travelled all over the world, with over 200 performances a year. He has produced 70 albums of his unique brand of music, with cello at its core, but combining voice and a pool of electronic recordings. His performances are an ever-evolving musical journey, mental images and creative surprises, which enchant audiences of all ages and cultures.
How lucky for Hermanus that he makes time in his hectic international schedule to return here to perform on a regular basis. Once again, this performance has been organised by the Wine Village to raise funds for Camphill School
You dare not miss this mind-stretching experience where anything could happen … and usually does. The performance, hosted by the Wine Village , will take place at the Wine Forum above the Wine Village Camphill School
