Joseph
Tawadros
(Notes
from a concert heard on 13 February, 2015)
The
Australian Chamber Orchestra has released a new CD - The
Four Seasons. Why would you want another four seasons
CD you ask yourself? Well, listen to this one and you
may decide you do
I
heard the ACO Four Seasons concert yesterday and it is
a beaut; a collaboration with Joseph Tawadros who composes
for and plays the Oud (Egyptian string instrument) and
his percussionist brother James Tawadros who played the
Riq', which is like a small tambourine.
Put
a group of virtuosic players in a room together and this
concert is what you get. It is energetic and obviously
fun for all participants. That makes it even more fun
for the audience who leave the hall smiling and humming.
