Fireside with the Sydney Chamber Choir @ the Neilson Pier 2/3 Walsh Bay Arts Precinct

Join the Sydney Chamber Choir in the intimate surrounds of the ACO’s The Neilson at Pier 2/3 for an evening of lush choral delights to keep out the winter’s chill!
Pull up a chair, grab yourself a glass, and sit back and enjoy the ravishing harmonies of unaccompanied choir: the deep contentment of René Clausen’s Tonight Eternity Alone; the sensuous textures of Ēriks Ešenvalds Only in Sleep and Edvard Grieg’s Ave maris stella; and a glorious a cappella arrangement of Ruth Moody’s beloved anthem One Voice.
For this concert the Sydney Chamber Choir is delighted to welcome back The Idea of North’s Naomi Crellin, co-directing with Sam Allchurch and a jazz trio led by Kevin Hunt, as the Choir rounds out the  program with a selection of jazz and popular favourites, from Edith Piaf’s La Vie en rose and The Beatles’ Norwegian Wood to It’s Oh So Quiet, covered so brilliantly by Icelandic pop iconoclast Björk.
