While you may be cooking a Christmas turkey, goose or nut roast, South Africa’s new Mzansi National Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Marin Alsop, will be on its first national tour, performing Beethoven’s ninth symphony.

In every city, the chorus will be indigenous.

The orchestra will be led by the South African violinist Pieter Schoeman, leader of the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
