“FIRST Light” refers to music illuminated by the sunrise and it is about to be performed in Port Macquarie by principal musicians of the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra.
They are part of a larger orchestra of 40 to 50 Australian musicians, with occasional guest performers from Europe. The orchestra was formed in 2013 and performed last Easter at the Sydney Opera House. It will also perform at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in July.
Given the size of the orchestra, smaller groups of principals can take their performances to regional centres.
“We’re absolutely delighted to be bringing our First Light program to Port Macquarie’s beautiful Glasshouse Theatre for the first time,” said Co-Artistic Director and Principal Clarinet Nicole van Bruggen.
