POETS + FIGHTERS

  • MOORABBIN
  • MERIMBULA
  • MALLACOOTA

An eclectic and intriguing hour of memorable musical energies and glorious melodies, enriched by baritone vocals.

MCO Artistic Director Sophie Rowell draws together four voices from three continents, spanning the last 125 years. The cool panache of Ravel’s iconic Quartet and the gravitas of Barber’s early masterpiece Dover Beach meet with the music of two of Australia’s most enduring and loved composers, Carl Vine & Richard Meale.

Award-winning baritone Stephen Marsh joins MCO for the works by Vine & Barber.

Works from this program are also featured in Chamber Music Dining at Narkoojee.

Mallacoota performance and community workshop supported by Music Victoria and the Commonwealth Government through the Far East Music Recovery Project.
