It has been stated that “people should perform more Brahms”, and we answer this request with a stunning combination of choral works by Johannes Brahms.
José Aparicio, our guest conductor, is a native of Spain with an inspiring presence as a conductor and a musical style influenced by his experience in opera and orchestral ensembles across Europe and New Zealand. The beautiful Brahms repertoire in this concert will be complemented by the unique and seldom-performed Siegfried Idyll as well as the song cycle from Manuel de Falla’s El amor brujo, performed by Anna Pierard.
