Australian Boys Choir – Austrian Encounters

May 22, 3:00PM (AEST) –  Digital Ticket: $24

 I chose this one for the picture, of course. The boys are just too cute to ignore but, if you actually watch the programme, they can sing too. They’re members of The Australian Boys Choir and for this concert, on period instruments, they will join with The Vocal Consort and the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra to present some of the finest 18th century choral repertoire.

It includes Mozart’s Spatzenmesse and also works by fraternal composers Joseph and Michael Haydn, conducted by Nicholas Dinopoulos. Soloists include – Soprano Suzanne Shakespeare,  Contralto Emily Bauer-Jones – Tenor Henry Choo  and Baritone Stephen Marsh.

This is a livestream on May 22 but all digital tickets come with 72-hour viewing starting from the morning after the concert so you can watch it from anywhere.

    That photo alone illustrates what a multi cultural country Australia has become. I’m sorry that I missed the concert.
