Mozart Requiem by Candlelight @ St Paul’s Cathedral
Mozart’s final masterpiece is one of my all-time favourite classical works, and it sounds even better when framed by the gothic splendour of St Paul’s Cathedral.
Aurora @ Palais Theatre
My crazy busy concert-going week concluded with another fabulous live show from the enchanting, quirky and adorable Norwegian songbird.
Florence + The Machine @ Rod Laver Arena
Four years after the last tour, it was a pleasure to see wonderful and bewitching Florence Welch spin her magic with yet another out-of-this-world performance, on the International Women’s Day no less.
Heilung @ Forum Theatre
Heilung was unlike any other live show I’ve been to, a mystical, otherworldly experience that’s part music concert, part ritual that seeks to connect with the ancient world of northern Europe.
Harry Styles @ Marvel Stadium
I enjoyed the hits, charm and showmanship, but spending a couple of hours in a stadium packed with thousands of delirious screaming girls was a tad too much for this geriatric millennial*.
New Music 01/2023 – ThornBird, Aurora, Mdou Moctar
Solo album from one-third of The Waifs; a newie from my favourite Norwegian forest spirit; electrifying desert blues.
Rina Sawayama @ 170 Russell
Fun start to live music in the new year with a powerhouse gig by a Japanese-British pop star, who by all rights should be the next Lady Gaga.
Dry Cleaning @ Corner Hotel
2022 has been a pretty damn good year for live music, and an excellent gig from this intriguing post-punk band was a great way to cap it off.
Aldous Harding @ Elisabeth Murdoch Hall
