Australian World Orchestra invited for 2015 charismatic chief conductor of Berlin Philharmonic Sir Simon Rattle with special guest, world famous Czech mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená. The Consulate has pleasure to invite you to two unique concerts in Sydney Opera on the 29 and 31 July and 1 August in Arts Centre Melbourne.
The programme will commence with Debussy’s sublime “Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune”. Magdalena Kožená, one of the most outstanding singers of our generation, will join the orchestra to perform Debussy’s gorgeous “Ariettes oubliées”, in an arrangement especially orchestrated for the AWO by Australian composer, Brett Dean.
The major work on this programme will be Bruckner’s monumental tour de force 8th Symphony, a work ingrained in Sir Simon Rattle’s soul.
