Intérprete: Pinchgut Opera

Pinchgut Opera always has a lot to offer, but this time their delivery proves patchy in ‘Coffee and a Dead Canary’. 

As usual, Pinchgut lavishes musical excellence on an obscure Baroque work... but why stage an oratorio? 

A rare 17th-century English Baroque spectacular, designed to delight the Restoration crowd, is given a contemporary twist in Sydney. 

Handel's Giulio Cesare is heavily abridged in Sydney, but generally well-performed musically, albeit with a rather awkward staging by Neil Armfield. 

Pinchgut Opera presents magnificent music and a timeless ethical debate on faith versus sectarian difference. 

Although abbreviated, Pinchgut Opera's production of Handel's Rinaldo makes a powerful dramatic impact and exemplifies high musical values, with excellent orchestral playing and consistently fine singing.
