The
Australian Chamber Orchestra
with Lorenza Borrani (director &
violin) perform:
Over the years, White Hat has found that the
Australian Chamber Orchestra has consistently brought us some of
the most thoughtfully constructed and thought-provoking concerts on the
Australian scene. This concert is no exception.
Beethoven's late string quartets strain to break the limitations of their
limited forces and gain a useful new perspective when occasionally heard in
arrangement for string orchestra. Similarly Prokofiev's Violin Sonata
No.1 provides different insights when the piano is replaced by string
orchestra. As an interlude between these powerful works, Bulgarian-British
composer Dobrinka
Tabakova’s Such Different Paths offers a radiant interlude evoking
life’s journey.
Fiery and charismatic Italian violinist Lorenza Borrani, who delighted
audiences on her last tour here in 2016, returns to lead this program of
emotionally rich music.
