  • Beethoven: Symphony No 9 “Choral” – Australian World Orchestra Posted on April 16, 2014 by Barry Walmsley
    Beethoven: Symphony No 9 “Choral” – Australian World Orchestra Posted on April 16, 2014 by Barry Walmsley Australian World Orchestra Sydney Philharmonia Choir Conductor: Alexander Briger ABC 481 0550 The scale of a work such as Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony is truly staggering. Whilst the work has been overused for civic celebratory events, the concert experience (and this recording, which originates from a live concert in the Sydney Opera House) is something that can touch listeners in profound ways. The complexity of the music is only equalled by its challenging compositional ideas, along with the treatment of text (by Schiller), and the fusion of what, for the most part, are incompatibles, that is, the choral and the symphonic idiom. Structurally, the work is really a set of variations, showing a total connection from beginning to end. These totally new elements (the unconventional symphonic layout and the use of words within a symphony) helped to underline, in the public’s mind, that Beethoven had truly gone mad. This particular recording emanated from one of the most exciting of recent concert events, the inaugural season by the newly created Australian World Orchestra, an initiative to bring together the finest of Australian orchestral musicians from around the country and across the world. Thus, it saw players return from such illustrious orchestras as the Berlin and Vienna Philharmonics, Chicago and London Symphonies, the Concertgebouw and Gewandhaus, to be part of this concept orchestra. Bringing the whole project together, as its artistic and musical director, was conductor Alexander Briger, who has established himself on the world stage as one of the new dynamic conductors of this era.

  • Mozart and Brahms I Contents Welcome 1
    Music to soothe your soul Mozartand Brahms 28 + 29 MAY 2021 CONCERT HALL, QPAC PROGRAM | MOZART AND BRAHMS I CONTENTS WELCOME 1 IF YOU'RE NEW TO THE ORCHESTRA 2 FOR YOUNGER EARS 4 DEFINTION OF TERMS 8 LISTENING GUIDE 10 ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES 14 SUPPORTING YOUR ORCHESTRA 24 MUSICIANS AND MANAGEMENT 26 II PROGRAM | MOZART AND BRAHMS WELCOME Today we are very privileged to welcome back to the QPAC stage one of the world's greatest oboists - Diana Doherty. The oboe is a notoriously tricky instrument with several parameters that make it hard to master, none more so than the temperamental double reed at the top. These are hand- made by the oboist from a weed similar to bamboo (Arundo Donax for those playing at home). There are but a handful of oboists in the world who are invited to perform as soloists outside of their country, and Diana is one of them. One of my first trips to see the Sydney Symphony Orchestra as a teenager was to witness Diana perform the Richard Strauss Oboe Concerto. I marvelled at her gloriously resonant oboe sound, especially as she was 37 weeks pregnant! Nearly a decade later I watched Diana premiere Ross Edwards' Oboe Concerto, dressed (as instructed by the composer) as a wild bird, whilst undertaking dance choreography. I can’t think of any other oboist in the world who can pull off these jaw-dropping feats. Today, Diana performs the most famous work from the oboe repertoire - Mozart's Oboe Concerto in C. Diana is one of those oboists who makes the instrument sound like a human voice, and I have no doubt that you will enjoy her breathtaking rendition of this charming yet virtuosic concerto.
