Uplifting? You bet. The Soweto Gospel Choir’s performance at Adelaide Fringe underlines the compelling nature of a well-conducted choir with material arranged to highlight their talents. ★★★ ½
The opening performance in the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra’s 2020 season – and the first Master Series concert of the year – sought to represent a sense of adventure.
Billed as Magical Tchaikovsky, the ASO’s latest Master Series performance incorporated Wagner and Mozart, too, and that isn’t a bad road to travel. In fact, it produced a lively program of contrasts and masterful music-making.
Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic operetta The Mikado is the most recognisable and most performed of their works. Delivered with fine singing and clever stage presentation, this Adelaide production of the 1885 show is vibrant and charming.
