Conservatorium of Music at University of Tasmania: Our Father…
29 May @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm AEST

The Hedberg Ensemble perform works heavy with connotations of ‘the father’. Excerpts from the orchestral suites of ‘Papa’ Bach alongside evocative music of Peter Maxwell Davies and Don Kay – arguably the godfather of Tasmanian Music!
The program concludes with Galina Ustvolskaya’s Symphony no.5, a setting in Russian of the Lords Prayer.
Featured repertoire includes Don Kay – Update Hybrid, Galina Ustvolskaya – Symphony No.5 , J.S. Bach – Orchestral Suites, and Peter Maxwell Davies – ‘Five Klee Pictures’
