From Vivaldi to Sarasate and beyond, thrilling bravura showpieces of the Baroque, Renaissance and Romantic eras await you, with Camerata Academica of the Antipodes latest concert Fire and Light, featuring the ensemble, core soloists and guests.
Dubbed 'musically combustible' by Criticks UK for the ensemble's blend of talent, scholarship and vibrant performances, the Camerata's Fire & Light features the fascinating Vivaldi La Cetra Op9 No3 (selections), spectacularly virtuosic Sarasate Gyspy Airs (Zigeunerweisen) in a special arrangement created for the Camerata, and the tour-de-force of solo and ensemble playing of the famous Corelli La Folia – based on the arrangement by Baroque superstar and pupil of Corelli, Geminiani . Intricate, intense and at times hauntingly beautiful vocal works for four and five voices, and ensemble by Morley, Campion and Faure come together in a concert not to be missed.*
Reflecting the Camerata's and guest artists' ethos of supporting music making for youth in Australia, profits from this concert will support the work of the Australian Children's Music Foundation.
