Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir Reunite with ACO MEDIA RELEASE Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir reunite with ACO ARVO PÄRT & JS BACH 2–13 February Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth “The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir have worked in close proximity with Arvo Pärt since the very beginnings of his career, so bring first-hand insight and perception when it comes to performing his music.” © KAUPO KIKKAS – RICHARD TOGNETTI The Grammy-Award winning Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir will reunite with the Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO) for the first time in 20 years to perform an ethereal and otherworldly national tour featuring the music of JS Bach and Estonian composer Arvo Pärt. Directed by ACO Artistic Director Richard Tognetti, the concerts will feature Bach’s sublime Lutheran motets interleaved with Pärt’s mystical explorations of the Orthodox faith, before reaching the climax of the program: Pärt’s magnificent Berliner Messe. The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir are regarded as the foremost interpreters of Pärt’s contemplative and profoundly spiritual choral music, and share an intrinsic connection with the composer. They have given numerous world premieres of Pärt’s music and recorded over 10 albums featuring his compositions, including the Grammy-Award winning albums Da Pacem (2007) and Adam’s Lament (2014).

His style is almost an island unto itself and provides an antidote, if e [email protected] you like, to 20th-century modernism. Pärt’s music also sits in perfect resonance p +61 2 8274 3825 with the music of JS Bach, hence why we’ve paired the two composers m +61 422 934693 together in this program.” Arvo Pärt is one of today’s most distinctive and revered composers, and since 2010 has been the most performed living composer in the world. In 1976, he created a unique musical language called tintinnabuli, that has reached a vast audience the world over and defined his work right up to today. His music extends beyond the borders of 20th and 21st century ‘classical’ music, with musicians as diverse as Bjork, Michael Stipe of R.E.M. and PJ Harvey crediting him as being a major influence on their artistic output. The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir was founded in 1981 and is one of the best-known Estonian music ensembles in the world. The repertoire of the choir extends from Gregorian chant and baroque to the music of the 21st century, with a special focus on the work of Estonian composers. They give over 70 performances each year both in Estonia and abroad and have received 15 Grammy nominations, two of which they won.

    ROMANTIC SYMPHONY — 2010 NATIONAL CONCERT SEASON ASSOCIATE TOUR PARTNER ASSOCIATE TOUR PARTNER Transfi eld began life over half a century ago and although its activities were in the realm of construction, its founder, my father Franco, saw no distinction between the creative process of artists and engineers. The company began supporting the arts when it founded the Transfi eld Art Prize in 1960. This initiative quickly established itself as the premier contemporary prize for art in Australia. In 1973 the company founded the Biennale of Sydney and remains its founding partner. Continuing our history of supporting cutting-edge, contemporary culture, Transfi eld celebrates over a decade of support for the ACO. This year we are proud to announce a new vehicle, the Transfi eld Foundation, which will continue this patronage. As Chairman of the ACO, few activities have given me more pleasure and a greater sense of pride than seeing this home-grown orchestra reach and capture the imagination of local and international audiences. Under the direction of Richard Tognetti the orchestra continues to demonstrate breathtaking creativity and the performance of Romantic Symphony you are about to experience will be no exception.
