Noosa Chorale music director and conductor Adrian King said last Friday and Saturday’s “Majestic Mozart” concerts were “memorable and special”.
“We have to count ourselves very fortunate at this time of Covid that the production went ahead without interruption,” Mr King said.
After three plus months of practising while wearing masks, the choir clearly appreciated the freedom of unrestrained singing.
Singing the Mozart Requiem in D Minor with the choir and the Noosa Chorale Orchestra were four talented soloists well known to Opera Queensland fans, Judit Molnar (soprano), Anne Fulton (mezzo soprano), Mark Jowett (bass) and Graham Godfrey (tenor). The soloists also performed arias from Mozartian operas.
“Many audience and orchestral players came up to me at the end of both concerts to ecstatically say how impressed they were,” Mr King said.
