The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s al fresco festival ended with a crowd-pleasing, impeccably-produced screening of some of the world’s greatest nature cinematography, accompanied by an epic live soundtrack.
If you’ve only ever experienced the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra at the regal Town Hall, it is a surprise to see just how much a Festival of Orchestra can feel like the festivals of summers gone by.
The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s new festival opened last night at the Showground, with a program that included a raft of classical favourites. Our reviewer assesses the outdoor set-up and the ASO’s performance.
More than 200 musicians and singers will take to the stage at the ASO’s Festival of Orchestra to perform Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana – an epic score inspired by bawdy songs of medieval times but best known today for its dramatic chorus.
Helpmann Award winner Amy Lehpamer – star of shows including School of Rock, Dusty and The Sound of Music – will be in her element performing at the ASO’s outdoor concert A Night on Broadway. Here she reveals her pivotal roles and shares her five favourite Broadway hits.
