Omega Ensemble Premieres Gordon Kerry Clarinet Quintet Online


If you missed Omega Ensemble’s live from the Sydney Opera House,  you can now watch the world premiere of Gordon Kerry’s Clarinet Quintet on-demand, broadcast from the Joan Sutherland Theatre to your living room.

Composed in five movements, performers David Rowden (clarinet), Anna Da Silva Chen (violin), Tim Yu (violin), Neil Thompson (viola) and Paul Stender (cello) recorded his concert on Sept 12, 2020.

Gordon Kerry composed this especially for David Rowden, and says “I hope this work adequately celebrates David Rowden’s lyricism and technical agility, as well as the talents of those fine musicians who have formed the Omega Ensemble.”
