Bach Akademie Australia: Weddings & Parties Over Coffee
7 August @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm AEST

Award-winning Australian soprano Miriam Allan has achieved international fame, performing as soloist with leading ensembles including Les Arts Florissants, English Baroque Soloists and Concerto Copenhagen, and singing at the funeral of HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh.
Miriam returns home for this very special program featuring Bach’s poignant and heartwarming Wedding Cantata together with his Coffee Cantata, a miniature comic opera about a disgruntled father and his coffee-obsessed daughter. Miriam will perform alongside her own father, Australian baritone Christopher Allan.
