As encore the Ensemble Matheus was playing a contemporary Barock inspired tune by Dumisani Maraire (1944-1999) called “Mai Nozipo” (My mother). Mr. Maraire was from Rhodesia – now Zimbabwe.

 

Without Oslo Chamber Music Festival Oslo would have been missing a hit in the summer festival concert season, and it is great to see that the audience are filling up the many concert venues day after day.
