Government through Arts NSW. PRINCIPAL PARTNER 25 YEARS OF ACHIEVEMENT Macquarie Group is again proud to be the principal partner of the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra. The Brandenburg’s 25th year promises to be a memorable one with a concert series featuring some of the baroque and early classical periods’ most renowned composers, as well as some more modern names. As the Brandenburg has done year after year, well-loved and lesser- known pieces are brought to life through the precision and passion of the Orchestra, the Brandenburg Choir and some of the most exciting names in international concert music. This is a year of celebrating achievement. From small beginnings, the Brandenburg has become one of Australia’s great treasures. And although the Orchestra has evolved over more than two decades, what has remained constant is its dedication, expertise and an unfailing pursuit of excellence. Macquarie recognises that these qualities can deliver powerful outcomes. It is a privilege to support the Brandenburg as it shares its love of the music of centuries past with audiences today. Whether it is in the concert hall or in the classrooms visited as part of its education program, the Brandenburg continues to make an enduring contribution to the legacy of baroque music. We congratulate Paul Dyer, Bruce Applebaum and the Orchestra on their 25th anniversary and for creating a wonderful year of concerts. We hope you enjoy the performance. Greg Ward Deputy Managing Director, Macquarie Group Limited ARTISTIC DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE It’s our 25th birthday! When I came to program our first series for 2014, I asked myself, ‘How do I celebrate 25 years of wonderful music-making with some of the most talented musicians performing across the world today?’ The answer was easy: I turned back to Bach, from whose Brandenburg Concertos our Orchestra and Choir take their name. I wanted to capture and celebrate the exuberance and excitement of this very important milestone with all the flair, colour and recognition such an anniversary deserves. The grand style of Bach’s Magnificat, performed in this rarely-heard original version, is a choral masterpiece that will showcase the artistry of the Orchestra and Choir, and ensure there is not a member of the audience left unmoved. With such an occasion to celebrate, I wanted to mark the event with a new work, specially commissioned from my old friend and celebrated composer Elena Kats-Chernin. Our new commission from Elena, Prelude and Cube, premieres in this series and pays homage to Bach, offering a glimpse into the world of the baroque and a triumphant celebration of the Brandenburg. Co-founder Bruce Applebaum and I are immensely proud of this extraordinary, vital and dynamic orchestra and choir, and of all our achievements over 25 years. We receive no greater joy than performing for you, our wonderful audience and treasured members of the Brandenburg family. Without you we would not be here today, and on behalf of the Orchestra and Choir, we all thank you.

  • Bach 721 - J.S
    BACH 721 - J.S. BACH: Cantatas 142 & 65, Magnificat BWV 243 Bach moved to Leipzig on May 22, 1723, where he was to live as Cantor of the Thomas Kirche for the remaining 27 years of his life. He quickly realized that the weekly Cantatas were to be his first priority, and he at once determined to fulfil an old ambition to produce a series of Cantatas as required for every Sunday or Special Occasion in the Church’s Year, composing almost one per week for the first three years of his tenure. Fortunately he was able to draw upon a basic cantata model already formulated several years earlier while he was at Weimar. Our first Cantata, BWV 142: Uns ist ein Kind geboren – For unto us a Child is born , a Cantata for the first day of the Christmas Festival, was composed at Weimar, probably in 1712 or 1713 with a text by Erdmann Neumeister. It is scored for Alto, Tenor and Bass soloists, a full Choir, two Recorders, two Oboes, first and second Violins, Viola and Continuo. This is followed by Cantata BWV 65: Sie werden aus Saba alle kommen – They shall all come out of Sheba. This Advent Cantata tells of the visit of the three Wise Men from the Orient, coming to present their gifts to the new-born Christ in the Bethlehem stable. First performed on January 6 th , 1724, the Festival of the Three Kings or Dreikönigsfest which brought to an end Bach’s first Leipzig Christmas, the Cantata is scored for Tenor and Bass soloists, full Choir, two Recorders, two Oboi da caccia, two Horns, Viola, Cello, Double bass and Continuo.
