Following our highly successful ‘Old Worlds and New’ project in 2024, we now continue our journey eastwards to explore the historical musical worlds of current-day Greece, Syria and Persia, amid the overarching influence of the Byzantine and Ottoman empires. We will weave a narrative in music and words telling of this time and of travelling musicians, exchange of arts and instruments, and the diasporas from religious persecution.
Adelaide Baroque brings together their period instrument expertise with guests from both Adelaide and Brisbane, performing new arrangements created especially for this occasion featuring contemporary flavours, rhythms and improvisation, creating a dynamic fusion of elements. Not to be missed!
