Seasons of Life
Featuring Mozart's "Requiem" and "A Season to Sing" -
a Choral Re-Imagining of Vivaldi's Four Seasons by Joanna Forbes L'Estrange
Sunday, October 26, 2025
The centrepiece of this concert is a newly-commissioned work by the English composer Joanna Forbes L’Estrange,
A Season to Sing, which is a choral re-imagining of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. The work is being performed globally to coincide with Vivaldi’s 300th Anniversary, and is a gloriously exciting choral work for voices and string orchestra. Joanna will be conducting the premier performance in Australia at the Sydney Opera House on April 1, 2025, with the Sydney Philharmonic, and KCP is incredibly honored to be presenting the first performance of this work in the United States. People from across the US are already contacting us to ask about it. We're pretty stoked.
