Australian Chamber Orchestra & The Hilliard Ensemble
|
The
Australian Chamber Orchestra (Helena Rathbone Lead Violin) with The Hilliard
Ensemble. White Hat refards The Hilliard Ensemble to be one of the finest male
vocal ensembles in the world. Their attention to tuning and chording in Medieval
and Renaissance music gives it a 'ring' not heard in ensembles who stick to
compromise of the equal temperament of the keyboard. This attention to ensemble
tuning also pays dividends in contemporary music. This promises to be a special
concert.

Beethoven 9 - Ode to Joy
|

The Australian
Chamber Orchestra with Richard Tognetti (Artistic Director
and Lead Violin), Choir of Clare College, Cambridge (Graham Ross
Director), Lucy Crowe (soprano), Fiona Campbell (mezzo soprano),
Allan Clayton (tenor) Matthew Brook (bass)
White Hat has long believed that many modern performance of Beethoven
symphonies by large symphony orchestras lack the vitality and drive of a
performance by a first rate chamber orchestra - supplemented where necessary -
of the proportions that Beethoven was writing for For those who share this view
we suggest you look no further. Critics called the ACO's recent Beethoven
concert in London “the finest concert of the summer” and spoke of
“thrilling playing”, “vibrant drive” and “total involvement”,
concluding, “this compact chamber orchestra matches anything Europe can offer
in energy, precision and interpretative rigour.”
Joined by one of the finest British choirs this concert promises to be
something special where every note Beethoven wrote can be heard rather than lost
in a sea of overblown orchestral 'atmosphere'.
