We are thrilled to have Adelaide-based choir Lumina join our Festival.
Lumina specialises in discovering and performing music that is rarely heard. Ranging from medieval gems to masterpieces of the Renaissance and later, Lumina has also established a niche nurturing Australian composers, including performing dozens of world premieres.
Lumina will be performing A Time Traveller's Guide to Choral Music, starting in 5th century Armenia with some of the earliest music ever written, to western Europe, taking in the sounds of southern France and Italy in the 14th century, before landing on a 16th century work by the father of the Renaissance, Josquin des Prez. They then travel through 17th century England, 18th century Germany and back to France between the wars, before alighting in the modern era, with works from Bosnia, Bulgaria, Ukraine and Australia, including works by three composers from the choir.
This performance precedes Hamilton Civic Choir's performance, so make an afternoon and evening of it and see both!
