Celebrating SPC's 100 Years
In celebration of its centenary this year 2020, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs will sing Elena Kats Chernin's new work HUMAN WAVES... filled with heart wrenching stories of
survival.
Due to COVID-19, this year there won't be physical concert - no Sydney Opera House nor Sydney Town Hall - rather, it's virtual voices of Sydney Philharmonia choristers.
HAPPY 100th BIRTHDAY Sydney Philharmonia!!!
Cinematic Birthday Concert, Time & Place
Premiering on Wednesday 9 September, 7:30pm.
To celebrate this remarkable achievement in the cultural life of Australia, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs will present a cinematic concert featuring newly commissioned works by two of Australia’s most lauded female composers.
Time and Place examines what it means to be part of Australian society through the lens of both indigenous cultures and those many cultures that have come to call this land home.
Tarimi Nulay – long time living here is a choral Acknowledgement of Country written by Deborah Cheetham with text by Matthew Doyle. It is a work that brings Australians into the moment and lifts the curtain on Elena Kats Chernin and Tamara-Anna Cislowska’s world premiere, Human Waves. True stories of struggle and success have been woven into the nine movements that will touch hearts, make you laugh and possibly even bring a tear to the eye.
Hundreds of choristers have recorded themselves in isolation and this will be mixed with live footage of the composer and librettist at the piano to create a unique digital event that celebrates the best of our unusual times.
It is so much more than a concert.
It is an event not to be missed.
