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.

White Hat suggests that if you want to become a world class a capella ensemble,
a good tsarting point is growing up singing Bach as boy sopranos in the Leipzig
church where Bach himself presided. Since that time Amacord have gone on to be
regarded as one of the finest male vocal ensembles in the world.

Melbourne Town Hall Proms - Enigma Variations
|
|
The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra with Christopher Seaman (conductor), Radovan
Vlatkovic (horn) and Oystein Baadsvik tuba.
This concert celbrates the tenth anniversary of the Melbourne International
Festival of Brass and two of the world’s great brass soloists join the MSO.
Framing the classic concertos for the horn and tuba are the brilliant,
folksong-inspired orchestral variations by Kodály and the stirring Enigma
Variations by Elgar. The Enigma is a particularly appropriate choice because of
the starring and virtuosic role Elgar assigns teh brass in his masterly
orchestration.Presented in collaboration with the Melbourne International
Festival of Brass.
