– InReview
Timothy Wayne-Wright created The A Cappella Academy, which launched globally at UKARIA in April 2022. After the success of this inspiring event, it returns with The Gesualdo Six as Artists-in-Residence and will once again be directed by Tim.
Over an intensive five days of teaching, the Adelaide Chamber Singers and Aurora Vocal Ensemble, directed by Christie Anderson, and the Festival Statesmen Chorus, directed by Jonathan Bligh, will perform alongside The Gesualdo Six in this Finale performance. In the pure acoustic of UKARIA, vocal works reflecting both rebirth and revival will be showcased, from core Renaissance repertoire to contemporary commissions.
In the week prior to Finale, there will be professional development opportunities for local singers, conductors, teachers, and choral enthusiasts through participation in public workshops.
