PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO P.O.BOX 2360 - BULAWAYO

I very much regret having to write to say that the concert by O Duo scheduled for next Monday has had to be cancelled.

The timetable was very tight and there have been various problems associated with the concert but we thought we had succeeded in overcoming all of them and that we would be able to transport the players plus some 300 kg. of instruments to Bulawayo. The Harare- London journey was in the hands of HIFA and they (and we) had reckoned without airline regulations - Air Zimbabwe insist that the instruments have to be at the airport 48 hours before the flight on which they are to travel. This in on Wednesday evening and there is no room for manoeuvre as one of the duo has an engagement immediately on return.

We have done everything we can and are very grateful to colleagues in Harare for assistance but there seems to be no way that the deadline can be sufficiently reduced to make the concert possible so reluctantly there is no alternative to cancellation - or perhaps postponement by a year or two!
The duo's agent has e-mailed me as follows: This is so disappointing for them and for you. I offered to pay to hire instruments for Owen to use in London so his could arrive back a bit later than him but it is absolutely imperative he use his own instruments because they're tuned to the other instruments used with the London Sinfonietta and he couldn't be sure of that with hired instruments. Anyway, it's something like that and he is DEVASTATED that he is letting you down and very disappointed not to be visiting Bulawayo...
There's no more I can do from this end is there except repeat how disappointed I am for everyone concerned and to thank you for all your efforts on the boys behalf. Hopefully they will be back next year (or maybe 2009 would make more sense!). Learning how Africa works is a huge curve! I don't think I can add any more other than our most sincere apologies for the disappointment this will cause. I can assure you that no one will be more disappointed than the PAB committee and I - not least because of the many hours of work that have gone into this concert.
Refunds will, of course, be made and available at the Academy office on production of tickets from (I hope) Friday morning. Saturday's concert might be the most convenient opportunity for you - but please bring the tickets with you!
On which subject, Saturday's concert that is, this will, of course still take place, so a reminder:
SATURDAY 5 MAY AT 7.30 P.M.
in association with Alliance Française de Bulawayo Sébastien Guèze (tenor), Jean Ferrandis (flute), Patrick Zygmanowski (piano) Music by Roussel, Saint Saëns, Gounod, Debussy, Poulenc, Bizet and Caplet plus arias from Grand Opera With renewed apologies for this disappointing news and best wishes as always,

BROTHERS UNDER THE SUN,
the exhibition of sculpture by Dennis Gaboury and Arlington Muzundo that opened on April 29, will be on display until May 15 at the Gecko Gallery at the River Cafe, Oak Street and Leopold Takawira.

Railways in Bulawayo

Afternoon Mags,(well so it is here in a Very sunny Spring evening. evening. Can I pick your brains? During "my early youff" I spent most of my spare time in the bush having a ball,but there was one thing that I read about in the "Bulawayo Chronicle" and that was the building of a basic "Monorail"?. As I remember it was somehow connected with the Showgrounds, and was it the Railway Station?,but the main bit of flag waving that was being done, was that this was going to be the answer to Bulawayo's public transport woes and and more importantly it's costs. It was also being reported to have good sales possibilities to other towns?. Hence my question "What ever was it all about?,and where was it running from initially?,and more importantly what ever became of it all?".I'm sure that your contacts can come up with some information, please. Yours Geoff Crimes

National Parks has increased their entry fee into the Victoria Falls rainforest from $5 000 to $40 000. The fee for the non residents remains at US$20.

The National Museums and Monuments have also increased their entry charges to the Natural History Museum, Kame Ruins and Old Bulawayo to $16 000.

The GOOD NEWS is that the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority will be bringing some 55 international travel agents and 16 French golfers to Bulawayo during the Trade Fair period. (A'Sambeni which runs in conjunction with Trade Fair is devoted to tourism products can be found in Hall 3.) A further group of golfers will also be coming to Bulawayo at the end of next week.

The Vice President of the Kellogg Foundation and 6 other members of her team will be in Bulawayo and area for 4 days next week, to examine certain rural community and other projects with the intention of offering assistance where needed.

Mr Simon Spooner the Managing Director of Chematek has for many years been involved with the Beautiful Bulawayo Campaign and Watchdog Committee and both these have been successful in lobbying the City Council to improve potholes, litter, dustbin placement, tree planting, etc, particularly in the industrial sites.

The Association wishes to make it known that whilst its primary function is to market Bulawayo as a major tourist destination, it would also like to make known the services and products of its commercial and industrial members. However, to do this, it needs input from its members. The Association also takes up with the City Council many concerns of the citizens of Bulawayo.
