Australian Brandenburg Orchestra: Choral Splendour

April 16 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Bach. Telemann. Handel. Majesty.

This is Baroque at its most jubilant. Join the full force of the Brandenburg Choir and Orchestra for a blockbuster celebration of musical brilliance, beauty, and sheer joy.

At the heart of the program are three of Bach’s most iconic cantatas, alongside the beloved Double Violin Concerto — a showcase of dazzling interplay and expressive depth.

The second half bursts with colour and character: from Telemann’s Overture in D to the splendour of two of Handel’s regal anthems, Zadok the Priest and The King Shall Rejoice.
