The 2026 “Sydeny Sings” concert features the music of Georg Frideric Händel and the two brilliant sons of the great Johann Sebastian; Johann Christian and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach whose music had a profound influence on composers such as Mozart and Beethoven. As a consequence of the immense response to the recent performance of Zelenka’s “Missa Dei Patris” , his astonishing “Dixit Dominus” will be performed for the first time in Australia. .
