Performed more than 100 times in sold out halls across Australia and internationally, “Where Song Began” is a celebration of songbirds. Described as “spectacular” by Limelight Magazine in a 5-star review, the 50-minute program includes music spanning 300 years, from Johann Heinrich Schmelzer and J.S. Bach to Arvo Pärt, and new commissions, enhanced by a film of evocative visual projections and an immersive soundscape.
