The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra with Andrew Davis (conductor) and Cameron
Carpenter (organ)
The concert opens in Sir Andrew Davis’ own transcription of Bach’s
Passacaglia and Fugue in C

work well suited to show off the mighty Town Hall Organ - before finishing with
Brahms second symphony.

Hat suggests that if you love unaccompanied singing you take several weeks off
work and visit "a cappella" - the annual international festival of
unaccompanied vocal music in Leipzig - where you will hear great a cappella
ensembles from around the world. If you don't have that time or cash to spare, a
much cheaper but highly satisfying option is to head along to this concert
performed by the ensemble who initiated the festival and who are recognised as
one of the finest male vocal ensembles in the world.
Tales of Love and Murder. Renaissance madrigals by Encina,
des Prez,
Lassus,
Gesualdo and others, and
part-songs by Saint-Saëns,
Schubert,
Mendelssohn,
Poulenc, and folk songs from
around the world.
