BRISBANE, Australia—After an Australian debut performance at Sydney’s Opera House, a very warm Queensland welcome by International and local dignitaries, the local Taiwan community and Brisbanites was extended to “The Sound of Taiwan” performance.
Despite a chilly winter evening King George Square filled with eager concert goers pouring into Brisbane’s heritage-listed City Hall; the award-winning Evergreen Symphony Orchestra (ESO) gave a Queensland debut performance in the main auditorium on July 14.
The orchestra fosters young musicians and is sponsored by a private foundation; it travels the world sharing Taiwanese culture wherever it performs; and it is joined by international artists as it presents both Eastern and Western sounds.
The effect of the blue/green shimmering dresses of the female musicians contrasted well with the impressive backdrop of a pipe organ and copper domed ceiling as the orchestra entered Brisbane’s historic auditorium stage.
