A spectacular new collaboration with Sydney Dance Company featuring music by Arvo Pärt and JS Bach
The ACO and Sydney Dance Company reunite for the first time since 2015 in Silence & Rapture, an immersive showcase of music, dance, vocals and breathtaking lighting.
Hailed as "two of our most innovative, new music-embracing ensembles" (Limelight), this all-star collaboration is directed by Richard Tognetti, with evocative choreography by Rafael Bonachela, and features Grammy Award-winning countertenor Iestyn Davies in his long-awaited Australian debut.
Despite living 300 years apart, JS Bach and Arvo Pärt share a musical language that transcends boundaries to connect with audiences across genres and generations. This is music that touches the soul and attempts to understand what it means to be human. We invite you to join us for this very special concert experience.
