Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO) in Japan

7 October 2011 - 13 October 2011

The ACO is riding a new wave of popularity in the classical music world. Following up from its last stellar performance in 2008, in which the performance led by Richard Tognetti created a stirring response from appreciative audiences, the ensemble will return to Japan this October.

Having been complemented by the effortless dexterity of the world-class performers such as Pahud, Isserlis and Hewitt, this time the talented ACO ensemble will invite harpist Yoshino Naoko to join them this year.

The stunning and stylish staging of the ACO, and the leadership of Tognetti seeks to support the individuality of the ensemble and guest musicians for the purpose of enjoying music together with the audience. For neophytes and classical music lovers alike, this thrilling Australian presentation promises to provide a refreshing angle to this classic oeuvre.
