Join the Camberwell Chorale and Camerata Orchestra as they present two romantic masterpieces,
Schubert's beautiful and devotional Mass No. 5 in A-flat Major and Chopin's lush and lyrical Piano Concerto No 1 in E Minor.

Schubert began to write the Mass in A-flat Major in the summer of 1819, intending to dedicate the mass to Emperor Franz I. Three years later, one of his finest sacred choral works was completed.
The gentle opening movement, the Kyrie, caresses the listener, while the extensive fugue, cum sancto spiritu in the Gloria, exemplifies mastery of contrapuntal composition.

The beauty and depth of Chopin's Piano Concerto No 1 which premiered in 1820, remains a timeless reminder of Chopin's unique gift as a piano master and a composer. His music continues to inspire and hold a special place in the hearts of music lovers worldwide.

Our soloists, well known to Melbourne audiences, are Lauren Oldham - Soprano, Kerrie Bolton – Mezzo Soprano, Christopher Busietta – Tenor, and Manfred Pohlenz – Bass.

Our piano soloist, Rachel Shindang, was the winner of the prestigious Boroondara Eisteddfod Piano Concerto Competition in 2023.
