Cellists of Otago with Soprano Rebecca Ryan
Heleen du Plessis’ Cellists of Otago are returning to the Lake Wanaka Centre on Sunday, 27 August at 2.00 pm, to perform a varied programme of well-loved pieces.
Joining the cello ensemble again, is renowned Soprano Rebecca Ryan who first came to international prominence when she gave the UK première of Handel’s newly rediscovered Gloria at London’s Royal Academy of Music.
The audience will love the variety of upbeat pieces including Schindler’s List Theme and Gospel train, together with Villa-Lobos’ magnificent Bachianas Brasilieras and traditional New Zealand songs including Hine e Hini.
Comments overhead following the 2020 Concert:
"The intonation of both the cellists and Rebecca Ryan’s vocals were perfect."
"What a fantastic voice Rebecca has – we were so lucky to hear her?"
"Heleen’s playing on her beautiful cello was as fantastic as ever."
"Hope they bring the cellists and Rebecca Ryan back to Wanaka!"
"That was the best Wanaka Concert Society concert I’ve been to."
The sound of an ensemble of cellos is magic, and even more so when joined by a wonderful soprano!
