CSO at the Cinema
The Canberra Symphony Orchestra has performed a new suite to a sold out audience for string orchestra, oboe, clarinet, guitar, and dumbek, from Fawaz AlMatrouk’s Kuwaiti war film To Rest in Peace.
“Curtis says the movie is “deeply human”, and so is her music. In this sublime performance, principals Megan Pampling (oboe) and Alan Vivian (clarinet), hovered over simply gorgeous harmonies in the strings, punctuated by beautifully understated harp-like phrasing on the guitar.”
