A ‘FESTIVAL SPECIAL PROGRAM’ IN JULY, presented in association with Musica Viva Australia.
A symphony of songs of love, loss and compassion that unites the soulful beauty of LIOR’s voice with the radiance and vivid drama of Nigel Westlake’s orchestral style.
Performed by an octet comprising some of Australia’s best ensemble musicians, this unique collaboration celebrates the importance of music as a poignant means of communication as the world searches for compassion and understanding. ‘Compassion’ is a poetic and highly emotional work, counted among Westlake’s finest.
