Anzac Reflections (expired event)

A poignant and reflective concert featuring sublime and beautiful choral works interspersed with moving, amusing and historic contemporaneous readings.

Anzac Reflections - Beyond Words. Rutter: Requiem, Jenkins: The Armed man (Excerpts), Whitacre: She Weeps Over Rahoon & Nox Aurumque

Often music can speak to a corner of our souls that is inexplicably hard to reach. Perth Symphonic Chorus’ offering of music and readings will aid our reflections and memories of our fallen soldiers and our men and women who have represented our country to defend our shores and to help maintain world peace. Rutter’s memorable and tuneful Requiem for choir and orchestra begins the program, followed by smaller works such as excerpts from Jenkins’ The Armed Man and beautiful unaccompanied arrangements of In Flanders Field and Danny Boy. In addition, the chamber choir will present two exquisitely moving pieces by Eric Whitacre - - She Weeps Over Rahoon and Nox Aurumque.
