Melbourne’s premiere a capella ensemble breathes life into 1000 years of vocal harmony by women composers. From contemporary Aboriginal Australian composer Deborah Cheetham’s arresting Tarimi Nulay to Hildegard von Bingen’s twelfth-century O virtus sapientiae, hear how women composers in the last millennium have harnessed the power and beauty of human voices in perfect harmony. This concert was originally scheduled for July 2020 as part of the Women in Music festival, but postponed due to COVID restrictions.

The Consort of Melbourne will feature the voices of Katherine Norman, Amelia Jones, Jenny George, Hannah Pietsch, Alex Gorbatov and Lucien Fischer. Directed by Steven Hodgson.
