A Burst Of Baroque

17 April, 2024 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Join the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra at the Canowindra Baroque Music Festival this September for A Burst of Baroque. A series of five concerts will take you from Berlin to Bologna and feature Principal musicians of the Orchestra performing works by Vivaldi, Handel and Teleman and more.

Baroquefest, Festival President Richard Statham said: “It seems fitting that in its tenth year Baroquefest should have the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra deliver a full weekend of five concerts at Canowindra.

Live, vulnerable and raw, the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra is unapologetic in their mission to push the limits of experience in the celebration of past and present-day human creativity. Their aim is to challenge ideas and reinterpret the icons of classical music for the 21st century, creating new audiences to ensure this cultural heritage lives on in the hearts and minds of new generations.

The Australian Brandenburg Orchestra’s splendid musicians will find Moorbel Hall and Gooloogong’s Log Cabin a far cry from the scale, elegance and sophistication of City Recital Hall and Australia’s other capital city performance venues. But many at the top of their profession who have played in and around Canowindra will attest that it is a welcome change to come down from their usual concert halls, to meet and play for us at some charmingly quaint venues in Central west NSW.

Reigniting early music from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries on rare instruments of the period, is where the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra’s faith for tradition begins and ends. Loved by audiences for their personality, warmth and spirit, Australia’s flagship period orchestra is for the bold explorers who are unsatisfied having their expectations met with the tropes of pomp and predictability. Join them in Canowindra for this unforgettable weekend.

Baroquefest 2024 will run from Friday 27th to Sunday 29th September, and you can enjoy the event in various ways:

• A-Reserve Pass – 5 Concerts

• B-Reserve Pass – 4 Concerts

• C-Reserve Pass – 3 Concerts
