What have our festivals programmed this year?

Mozart, Bach, Haydn and Handel top the bill, but there's plenty of new music too in SPC's 2022 program.

Important premieres, revivals of loved repertoire, national and international tours, a new season for independents and more add up to a busy year for SDC.

Programming the 2022 Sydney Festival felt a bit like playing Kerplunk, given the pandemic, but Olivia Ansell is still in her element as the new Director, and believes the arts can help communities recover after a tough couple of years.

Olivia Ansell's first Sydney Festival includes stunning installations, music in boatsheds and at The Cutaway in Bangaraoo, musicals, outdoor theatre, a strong dance component and more.

Features this month include summer reads for music lovers, the Limelight Artists of the Year for 2021, the transformation Simone Young will bring to the SSO, and Henry Handel Richardson's love of music and her treasure trove of songs.

Renowned as passionate, fiercely intelligent, formidable yet warm and caring, leading arts administrator Chrissy Sharp has died at the age of 70.

This month’s news round-up includes the return of the arts, Opera Australia’s latest outdoor spectacle, Queensland Ballet’s new home on the Gold Coast, the triumph of Moulin Rouge! The Musical at the Tony Awards, and the winners at the 2021 Art Music Awards.

The musical Girl from the North Country, featuring around 20 songs by Bob Dylan, will open at Sydney's refurbished Theatre Royal in January.
