Maurice Steger Down Under

True to the very fitting title of “Recorder Revolutionary”, Maurice Steger and the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra along with Paul Dyer will be presenting a superb Baroque program on the stages of Sydney and Melbourne. The ensemble will invoke masterpieces from Telemann, Handel, Fiorenza among others. Steger also has a selection of Vivaldi concertos in store, perfectly complemented by his Swiss charm. In the words of Paul Dyer (Artistic Director of the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra), Australian audiences can look forward to witnessing the “Speedy Gonzales” of the recorder at work. Steger has a long history of captivating audiences with his breathtaking virtuosity combined with technical brilliance. The musicality and emotional depth of his performance also makes the slow, moving passages a true delight. This collaboration with the young not to mention dynamic ensemble of Australia’s leading Baroque orchestra is sure to delight audiences with vibrant, superb music performances!
