We're thrilled to return to City Recital Hall for our first live performances in a concert hall in more than six months. What better way to mark the occasion than with a program full of optimism, exhilaration and transfiguration, themes reflective of our joy to be performing live again.
We open with Australian composer William Barton's original work, Didge Fusion, on which we're privileged to be joined by the composer and multi-instrumentalist himself on guitar and didgeridoo.
We continue with Mendelssohn's beloved String Quartet in D major, Op.44 No.1, a captivating and exuberant work with Mendelssohn’s special gift for melody on grand display.
Our program continues with Schoenberg's majestic Verklärte Nacht ('Transfigured Night'), 30 minutes of exquisite music that paints a vivid scene filled with intrigue, secrecy and ecstasy. Schoenberg’s masterpiece builds to a rapturous climax that culminates in a serene and utterly beautiful finish.
The safety and comfort of our audiences, artists and team remains our top priority. As we return to the concert hall we do so with additional safety guidelines in place. Tickets to these exclusive Sydney performances will be sold at a reduced capacity to accommodate socially distanced seating.
We are invigorated by the opportunity to perform live once again despite these changed circumstances. Join us to take solace in the concert hall, a welcome respite from what has become our everyday lives, and be a part of our return to the stage.
