SYDNEY PHILHARMONIA FESTIVAL CHORUS

Sydney Philharmonia continues to evolve and our new Festival Chorus reflects our need for a large chorus of singers who come together regularly to perform but not on a full-time basis like our other ensembles. Inspired by the great Robert Shaw chorale in America and similar to what used to be our Massed Choir, this ensemble will have between 250 and 400 voices who will be selected from across Sydney and beyond to perform in the Sydney Opera House some of the finest music written for voices at the highest musical level.

CARMINA BURANA

Possibly the most popular and influential work of the 20th century, Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana is a journey that explores the harshness of fate, the carnal pleasures of love and the near sacred nature of intoxication. Loved by performers and audiences alike, it will be a performance that will get your pulse racing.
