Erin Helyard, hand-picks his favourite artistic collaborators, and curates his own program of early-music repertoire creating a treasure-trove
\nof Baroque pieces, performed by Australia\u2019s leading musicians\u00a0 in two concerts as a part of Musica Viva\u2019s return to the stage for Reconnect: Sydney<\/em>. For those who would prefer to enjoy Musica Viva\u2019s return to the stage from the comfort of their own home, the 16 November performance will be live streamed as Musica Viva Reconnect: Online <\/em>concert.<\/p>\n

Musica Viva\u2019s Artistic Director Paul Kildea recalls the ideas for these performances began when conversing with Helyard, Kildea wanted to give Helyard the freedom to present gems from the early-music repertoire that are rarely given the chance to shine. Also starring in the program is\u00a0 baritone David Greco, who\u2019s enjoyed a brilliant creative friendship with Helyard, most recently heard on their Aria-nominated recording of Schubert\u2019s Die Sch\u00f6ne M\u00fcllerin<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Kildea suggested the program incorporate works that would also feature David. The accompanying ensemble also includes close musical colleagues, with David\u2019s brother, the violinist Matt Greco, also joining them on stage. For the last decade, Matt has worked as a soloist, concert master and core member of some of the leading period instrument ensembles. Together with Anton Baba (viola da gamba), Hannah Lane (harp) and Rafael Fonte (violin), they\u2019ll perform music by Bach, Handel and their musical forefathers.<\/p>\n

\u2018This is a luscious program of baroque masterpieces from composers writing at the height of their powers.\u2019 says Helyard. \u2018This program really outlines the splendour of German music at the time.\u2019 When pressed to name a favourite piece, Helyard says, \u2018For me Buxtehude\u2019s Cantata is the highlight\u2014but that\u2019s because I love chaconnes! They are a cool sequence of chords that you can endlessly riff over.\u2019<\/p>\n
