Macquarie Singers Presents Pulse!
Out of the frying pan, into another frying pan. This weekend, I’m conducting The Macquarie Singers in a very exciting concert of rhythmically driven choral works, featuring some things I’ve wanted to do for decades, including Michael Torke’s post-minimalist masterpiece Adjustable Wrench! Saturday 22 November @ 3pm at Turramurra Uniting Church. Also, there is a repeat concert at Lane Cove Anglian Church at 7:30pm on Tuesday 25 November https://www.mus.org.au
