Details
With Christmas approaching, December can be hard work, so take a little time out to relax, enjoy some beautiful music, and learn to breathe again!
Conductor: Elizabeth Scott Guest artist: Genevieve Lang (harp)
This program combines 16th-century musical treasures with a beloved 20th-century classic, Britten’s Ceremony of Carols. Innocence and wisdom combine in the ancient poetry and the exquisite music for women’s voices and harp. Also featured is the lush O magnum mysterium by Morten Lauridsen, one of America’s most popular contemporary composers, and a newly-commissioned Australian work by Gordon Kerry, composer-in-residence at the Australian National Academy of Music, whose music for choirs, chamber ensembles and orchestras is in demand in the USA and Europe as well as across Australia. BENJAMIN BRITTEN: A Ceremony of Carols MORTEN LAURIDSEN: O magnum mysterium TOMÁS LUIS DE VICTORIA: O magnum mysterium, Missa O magnum mysterium FRANCIS POULENC: Quatre motets pour le temps de Noël GORDON KERRY: Et incarnatus est (World premiere; commissioned work*)* The composition of this work was commissioned by The Ian Potter Cultural Trust.
Sydney Chamber Choir is assisted by the NSW Government through Arts NSW and by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.Where
