Chopin & Mendelssohn's Octet
|
The Australian Chamber Orchestra with Richard Tognetti (Artistic Director and Lead Violin)
and Polina Leschenko (piano). The orchestras three wonderful
heritage violins – a Stradivari, a Guarneri and a Guadagnini - will display
their wares in the Paganini caprices. Chopin's
first piano concerto is a much
loved work full of romantic lyricism and although Górecki is best known for his haunting and heartfelt Symphony of
Sorrowful Songs, his Piano Concerto bristles with driving rhythms and energy.
The concert ends with one of the glories of chamber music - Mendelssohn's
Octet. In White
Hat's experience ACO's performance of this work is the equal of any performance
you are likely to hear anywhere else in the world.

Australian String Quartet - Towards Light
|
|
The Australian String Quartet have new personnel for 2012 and White Hat feels
it is appropriate that for their first concert the new ensemble should emerge
out of the dreamtime with Peter Scunthorpe's Jabiru Dreaming (String Quartet
No.11). Dvořák as at his tuneful best in his String Quartet No.10 then
the concert finishes with one of the great 20th century chamber works -
Shostakovich's Piano Quintet. This work captures Shostakovich in one of his rare
moments of relaxation and seeming contentment. We have rated this concert at 4
hats on potential and, who knows, after this new ensemble has been heard for the
first time this may become 5 hats.

Tafelmusik - The Galileo Project Music of the Spheres
|
Canadian ensemble Tafelmusik will take you on an epic space odyssey, performing
period music before stunning images from the Hubble deep
space telescope. Combining music, photography and story-telling, The Galileo
Project brings to life the brilliant minds of the early astronomers and the
music that inspired them, as a large-scale, ever-changing backdrop of stars and
planets unfolds.
The publicity states "Using the best of
Bach,
Handel,
Monteverdi and
Vivaldi, come
and hear the tunes that were probably stuck in Galileo’s head when he discovered
the moons of Jupiter." Now you are probably thinking, like White Hat how
could tunes of composers who hadn't been born yet be stuck in his head. However
we are sure that this program has been meticulously researched so all will be
revealed. The program will also feature works by Lully,
Purcell,
Rameau,
Telemann & Michelangelo Galilei
brother of the astronomer). From the reputation of the group and the reviews of
this concert, White Hat suggests you go out of your way to attend.
[For those wanting a little background
to the history of the concept that over the centuries was known as The Music
of the Spheres, White Hat suggests that you consult the
program notes of Music of the Spheres
- given by Ars Nova of Melbourne. This concert is unrelated to the one above
but was also based on the relationship composers, mathematicians and scientists
long saw between music, mathematics and the heavenly bodies.] |

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.

Light Up My Garden
|
Good lighting adds an exciting new dimension to any garden, and
the delightful garden of retired engineers John and Margaret Wilson illustrates
several interesting techniques: cleverly disguised uplighting of an angophora,
in-pond lights illuminating a crepe myrtle, silhouettes created by back-lit
shrubberies, and side wash lighting of the heritage-listed stables. Specialists 'De Lights' will demonstrate the types of lights available for
use in gardens and share tips on placement, energy-efficient fixtures,
installation and ongoing maintenance. This event is part of the wonderful
Australia's
Open Garden Scheme.
Bookings are essential for this event as places are very
limited. Tickets $20. You can book online Australia's Open Garden Scheme's

St Lawrence String Quartet and Diana Doherty
|
White
Hat suggests that lovers of the oboe should head out of their way for this
concert. Diana Doherty is an Australian oboist who has won international
acclaim. In this concert she joins with the fine St Lawrence String Quartet
to perform Mozart's F major oboe quartet which is tuneful and refined - you
would expect nothing less of Mozart and later performs Australian composer
Matthew Hindson's Rush with its driving rhythms borrowing strongly from
rock and pop music. Mozart's quartet is flanked by string quartets from fellow
Viennese, Haydn and Beethoven.

Celebrating Historic Gardens
|
| Join the wonderful
Australia's Open Garden Scheme in
celebrating the history and heritage of two magnificent and notable
historic properties in Marryatville. Both now home to schools, they have
retained their beautiful buildings and surrounding landscapes.
Historians will be in the gardens to provide information about their
history and development. |

Eden Park
1A The Crescent, Marryatville
|
|

Loreto
316 Portrush Rd, Marryatville
|
| Eden Park Eden Park was originally owned by the founder of Harris-Scarfe.
The historic and elegant building is embraced by sweeping lawns,
significant trees, original bronze fountain, and a shady creek-edged
haven of palms, ferns and clivias.
The gardens are being restored by the Eden Park Garden Group. Members
of History SA will give talks on the history of the house and gardens,
and there will be music by the students. |
|
A largely intact Victorian garden surrounds the impressive mansion
at Loreto, with original features complemented by newer plantings and
landscaping.
Hoop and Bunya Pines, palms and jacarandas shelter roses and
perennials lining gravel paths, a terrace and fountain, a modern
labyrinth created from tiles, and the remains of a substantial
conservatory. Local historians will conduct tours of the mansion and
talk about its gardens, and there will be music by the students. |

than the Spanish artist. With two of the great works from the piano trio

Australian String Quartet - Legacy
|
The Australian
String Quartet's second concert in their 2011 combines early Beethoven, late
Brahms and the Australian composer Brett Dean who will also be playing viola.
White Hat suggests that the richness of texture provided by the additional viola
should make this a particularly satisfying concert.

Danielle de Niese with the Australian Chamber Orchestra
|
Danielle de Niese (soprano)
has long been on White Hat's list of
Significant Melbourne People.
She was born in Melbourne and won Young Talent Time aged 9,
then moved to Los Angeles, won an Emmy and made her debut with the LA Opera aged
15. She has blossomed into one of the hottest properties in opera, enrapturing
audiences in roles like Cleopatra, Euridice and Susanna at Glyndebourne, the
Metropolitan Opera and on screen.
To celebrate her professional debut in her home country, De Niese sings a
specially commissioned Australian work, which also marks the centenary of
Australia’s Nobel laureate
Patrick White. The fireworks of
Mozart's
Exsultate jubilatee
is contrasted Schubert's haunting song, Death and the Maiden.
The
Australian Chamber Orchestra (Richard Tognetti Artistic Director and Lead
Violin) will then perform Schubert's masterly quartet (arranged for string
orchestra) which uses that same song as an inspiration.
|
|
|
|
 |
Takács Quartet
|
|
Two of the finest string quartets of the 20th century performed by one of the
world's most respected chamber groups. White Hat suggests that you attend both
of the Takács Quartet concerts if you can. That way you can hear the pair pair
of Janáček quartets and the Ravel & Debussy Quartets (often regarded as a
'pair') both separated across tow nights - in our opinion the best way to hear
them.

Amarcord
|
|
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.
The Singing Club – Four Centuries of Song Renaissance madrigals, part-songs
by Schubert,
Schumann,
Elgar,
Dvorák,

from around the world. |

Trout Quintet & Quartet for the End of Time
|

A rare treat. Two of what White Hat regards as the finest works in the chamber
music repetoire presented in the one concert. The Schubert
Trout Quintet is full of sunshine
and youthful optimism while Messiaen's
Quartet for the
End of Time is, in White Hat's opinion, one of the great works of the
20th century. A prisoner of war, Messiaen wrote the Quartet for the End of Time for the
musicians he found in the camp, premiering it to an audience of inmates and
guards. “Never” he said, "was I listened to with such rapt attention and
comprehension."
Australian
Chamber Orchestra Principals are joined by clarinettist Paul Dean and
dynamic young pianist Saleem Abboud Ashkar, making his Australian debut.The
performers are Helena Rathbone (violin), Christopher Moore (viola), Timo-Veikko
Valve (cello), Maxime Bibeau (double bass), Paul Dean (clarinet) and Saleem
Abboud Ashkar (piano).

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'.

Australian String Quartet - Sunrise
|
|
When ABC listeners voted on their top 100 chamber works, Bartók's 3rd and 4th
string quartets didn't get a guernsey. However In White Hat's list of top 100
chamber works both came within the top 20. Why not go along to this concert by
the Australian
String Quartet with Paul Dean (clarinet) and judge whether you think the ABC
listeners are right or whether White Hat is right. Mores seriously, why not go
along and experience some seriously good music performed by some seriously good
performers.

Kuss Quartet & Naoko Smizu

Mozart, Handel & Vivaldi Concertos
|
The Australian Chamber Orchestra with Richard Egarr (Guest Director, Harpsichord, Fortepiano)
and Satu Vänskä (Lead Violin)
Keyboard players, conductor, historian, and director of the Academy of Ancient Music, Richard Egarr directs this concert from the harpsichord
and performs Mozart's delightful Piano Concerto No.12 on the fortepiano. White
Hat suggests you take the opportunity to hear the difference it make to have a
Mozart concerto played on the fortepiano rather than an overblown concert grand. Satu Vänskä is soloist in a Vivaldi concerto on the
ACO's
Stradivarius violin.
- Corelli
Concerto Grosso, Op.6 No.1
- Castello Two Sonatas, “per stromenti d’arco”

Anthony Marwood and Aleksandar Madžar
|
Beethoven's Kreutzer
Sonata is justifiably well-known and loved as one of the great works of
the violin sonata repertoire. However White Hat believes that
Debussy's Violin
Sonata, the last work he completed and the last that he performed in
public, is yet to be afforded the status it deserves by the public. This fine
pair of instrumentalists are sure to do them both justice.
