Melbourne Chamber Orchestra: Of People and Song
26 November 2023 @ 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm AEDT
For as long as there have been people, there has been song. Song is at the heart of rich musical traditions that bind people together, and attest to the spirit of time and place.
Eliding ideas of East and West, high and low, past and present, the music of renowned singer-songwriter Lior embodies a unique sensibility that feels urgent and relevant.
For the creation of a major new song cycle for the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra, Lior again pairs with regular collaborator Ade Vincent, an adventurous composer who works across classical, folk, electronic, pop and the space between.
Embracing Lior’s vision, Sophie Rowell has chosen iconic music by Grieg, da Falla and Rebecca Clarke, echoing musical traditions across centuries.
