The Utzon Room with its sweeping harbour views behind the stage is always a favourite venue for its dreamy atmosphere. Having the Omega ensemble present this delightful program here was a treat.
Omega Ensemble
Omega Ensemble’s debut recording on ABC Classics is interesting and polished
The famous and much-loved Clarinet Quintet of Mozart, and two contemporary pieces composed by fellow Australians, Ian Munro and George Palmer.
Omega Ensemble finished the year with an evening of superb music brilliantly played
A balmy evening at Angel Place was a great setting for an appealing programme given by the well-credentialled Omega ensemble and titled “Three Parts Mozart”.
Rowden & Raspopova performed with agility a lovely balance of well and lesser known works
Sparkling Sydney Harbour on a beautiful Spring afternoon was a most appropriate backdrop. My first Omega Ensemble concert, made a most favourable impression.
Omega Ensemble interplay was superb in a varied and engaging program
From the first chord Teije Hylkema held the audience’s attention with his commanding stage presence and sonorous and expressive performing.
Omega Ensemble’s Beethoven Seventh Symphony
Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony is immensely enduring and, as such, very popular. This was my first encounter with the group. It won’t be my last!
Omega Ensemble shined to a packed Utzon Room with a wonderful backdrop
Ben Hoadley’s “Four Preludes” based restful sojourns in New Zealand and Sydney’s North shore were satisfying, tranquil and well received.
Lee Abrahmsen shines with Omega Ensemble
Andrew Ford’s Contradance was composed for Omega – It was a lot of fun; congratulations to Ford and the ensemble. It deserves to be part of the repertoire,
Omega Ensemble gets Psycho!
The concert, which came about originally from Rowden’s desire to perform Herrmann’s Clarinet Quintet was highly varied and enjoyed by all
Omega Ensemble serenades the Sugar Plum Fairy
In a concert of serenades and seranatas, Omega Ensemble performs Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece superbly with Tarkmann’s intimate setting.
Omega Ensemble: Beethoven’s Genius
Omega’s Artistic Director David Rowden created an afternoon of wonder and intensity in the selection of this program of two early 19th century works
Omega Ensemble: Stanhope, Isaacs and Mahler
The Omega Ensemble is impressive. I will always be happy to attend any of their concerts and to recommend you do so too.
Omega Ensemble celebrates 10th anniversary with polished, thoughtful performance
Celebrating their 10th anniversary, this ensemble once again demonstrated a polished, thoughtful performance and I will be looking forward to the season to come.
Pondering: What influences our enjoyment of music performed live?
I recently found myself in a concert attending frenzy. In the midst of this I heard the same piece of music performed twice and Sophr, who I've not...
