Then, for concert lovers, November will feature the sublime filmed version of Pinchgut’s live concert performance, Monteverdi’s Vespers, and in December, Charpentier’s Messe de Minuit, both concert films returning to Pinchgut At Home after previously streaming for limited seasons.

A sumptuous opera film that celebrates the joys, vicissitudes and triumphs of love, A Delicate Fire pays homage to one of the greatest composers of the 17th century, Barbara Strozzi. A superb, all-Australian cast directed by Constantine Costi, features mezzo-soprano Anna Dowsley and soprano Taryn Fiebig, in what was her final major recording project before she sadly passed away in March 2021. Completing this impressive line-up is Pinchgut’s Artistic Director Erin Helyard leading an ensemble of Australia’s finest Baroque specialist players.
Originally streamed in Australia for a strictly limited season in 2020, A Delicate Fire, received great critical and public acclaim. The film will now make its worldwide premiere as the first offering in Pinchgut’s Digital Spring Season.
Pinchgut Opera’s brilliant interpretation of Cavalli’s masterpiece, directed by Mitchell Butel translates gloriously to film as it premieres on Pinchgut At Home.
Pinchgut Opera teamed up with Australian Theatre Live to film the live performances of The Loves of Apollo & Dafne at City Recital Hall in May earlier this year. A stellar cast, featuring Max Riebl as Apollo, Alexandra Oomens as Dafne, Stacey Alleaume (in her sensational Pinchgut debut) and Jacqueline Dark, brought this twisting tale of love among Gods and mortals to life, and wowed the audience by playing the multiple roles demanded by Busenello’s clever libretto.
