World-renowned ensemble to perform in Toowoomba
AFTER successful European tours in 2017 and 2018 the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne (Germany) is coming back to Australia and will perform in Toowoomba.
“Classical music the world over” is the motto of the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne and it matters not to the musicians whether they are playing a little village church, in the open air, in Cologne Cathedral or the Sydney Opera House – their enthusiasm to play music is the same.
The popularity of the ensemble is reflected in the fact that the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne plays about 300 concerts a year around the globe and listeners throughout the world look forward to a musical encounter with these exceptionally talented musicians.
The chamber has toured New Zealand, Australia, Spain, Great Britain, Ireland and many other countries — and of course Germany. In this context, the selection of works and soloists takes on a special significance.
The multifaceted composition of the ensemble provides every member of the Chamber Philharmonia Cologne with the opportunity to perform as a soloist.
The concert includes familiar greats like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Vivaldi in dialogue with works from people such as Sergei Prokofieff through to the “King of Tango” Astor Piazzolla.
The Chamber Philharmonia Cologne will perform at St Stephen’s Uniting Church, Neil St, Toowoomba, on Friday from 7pm.
Tickets are available from the Empire Theatre box office, 56 Neil St, phone 1300 655 299 or at www.empiretheatre.com.au
