Concert Group<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As part of Shore\u2019s Concert Group programme, several students – accompanied by Ms Wentzel and Ms Robertson – had the privilege of attending the Australian Chamber Orchestra\u2019s River <\/em>concert at the City Recital Hall on Wednesday 14 February. Following the production of the critically acclaimed Mountain, ACO artistic director Richard Tognetti joins hands with director Jennifer Peedom once again to produce another unique, cinematic exploration of the symbiotic relationship between man and rivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following a distinctive narration by Willem Dafoe on a journey through space and time, River <\/em>documents the cultural significance of these natural landforms throughout history to the devastating impacts of overpopulation and exploitation. The astounding documentary-style visuals, played above the performers on stage, were elevated by evocative performances from leading Australian didgeridoo player William Barton and the ACO, blending live music and breathtaking visuals to produce a unique live performance unlike any other. The performance revealed an extensive program, short excerpts of contemporary compositions containing electronic and synthetic sounds being matched with a number of substantial works such as Bach\u2019s Chaconne<\/em>, Vivaldi\u2019s Violin Concerto in D Major<\/em>, to Ravel and eventually Radiohead. The concert captivated audiences throughout its 120-minute duration and left a lasting impression on all of the boys and staff who attended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
