Feedback/Comments
The concert at the Opera House was amazing, as a Chamber Orchestra they filled the Concert Hall with music befitting a much larger orchestra, as for Christian Tetzlaff and his violin...definately the star of the night, definately an orchestra worth seeing again. A special thanks goes to Irena and her team at On the House, you all do a wonderfull job at puting everything together.
Regards Steven
Attended the concert on 10th June at the Sydney Opera House. It was an absolutely fabulous evening. The orchestra was magnificent, wonderfully conducted by Daniel Harding. Christian Tetzlaff made his violin sing in the Beethoven concerto. All in all a marvelous night.
