Musica d’amore and Diana Doherty — gorgeous and sublime!

Diana’s much longed-for return will feature the works of her latest recording on ABC Classics on which she presents oboe works by Bach. She will play oboe d’amore, darker than the oboe and more rounded and textured than the English horn. The Bach will be set against Melbourne Chamber Orchestra’s performance of three of Handel’s 12 concerto grossi, a set of works as inspired as his “Messiah”.

Elisabeth Murdoch Hall
