Noël! Noël! has been part of the Australian summer for more than 20 years and is one of the most popular Brandenburg traditions.
With his soulful voice and charming stage presence, Corowa has established himself as one of the country’s most respected talents. A regular guest vocalist and festival headliner, he has performed alongside some of Australia’s top musical talent including Christine Anu and Marcia Hines, and appeared in the Australian premiere of Broadway blockbuster Beautiful: The Carole King Musical and Opera Australia’s production of Bran Nue Dae.
Corowa said: “It is with great pleasure that I join the talented musicians of the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra and Brandenburg Choir for their annual festive concert series, which has become such a wonderful and joyous tradition that so many of their audience look forward to every year. I can’t wait to spread some Christmas cheer.”
In this concert celebrating the magic of the holiday season, audiences will enjoy serene and uplifting performances of both timeless carols such as Stille Nacht, as well as a selection of rare mediaeval hymns and other festive musical surprises. To add to the Christmas spirit, three ginormous glimmering Christmas trees will illuminate the concert stage.
Co-founder & Artistic Director Paul Dyer said: “An annual favourite for a reason, Noël! Noël! is the perfect way to herald in the holiday season with family and friends of all faiths and beliefs. Come rejoice in a musical celebration of joy and hope, and what is set to be a very Brandenburg beginning to Christmas.”
