Live Entertainment!
We are proud to be joined by two acclaimed local stars, Sinesipho Funo and Phenye Modiane. These acclaimed soloists will entertain us with their beautiful voices and perform the most loved arias, show tunes and musical hits, no doubt they'll have us all humming along!
Sinesipho Funo (26) hails from King Williams Town, where a love for music and singing started from an early age through her family. She studied at the SA College of Music at UCT and recently obtained an Advanced Performers Diploma in Music, specialising in opera, from the University of Cape Town.
She has participated in numerous local productions, and performed abroad in Argentina and Switzerland, amongst others. She is currently enrolled as a Postgrad Student at UCT under the guidance of Mr. Patrick Tikolo.
Phenye Modiane (37) was born in Ga-Rankuwa, Tshwane, where his singing talent was discovered by a schoolteacher. In 2006 he completed his Btech Degree in Vocal Art at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT). He has performed in countless opera productions all over South Africa and abroad.
Phenye was the Artistic Director of Gauteng Opera from 2017 until 2019 when it closed, and later that same year founded the Johannesburg Opera NPC. He continues to perform and produce concerts/productions and teach, coach, and manage artists.
