LateRooms.com - Queensland Pops Orchestra Celtic Celebration coming to Brisbane
Released on: April 08, 2011, 12:01 pm The Queensland Pops Orchestra (QPO) have enlisted the help of leading tenor Gregory Moore, plus numerous local performers and musicians, for their upcoming Celtic Celebration in Brisbane. Moore will take the stage alongside the likes of the Brotherhood of St Laurence's Choir, Watkins Academy of Irish Dance and Villanova College's Irish Ensemble for the show, which opens the QPO's 2011 season. The orchestra was formed back in 1984 by Colin Harper, a lifelong conductor of concert bands in the British and Australian armies. Since those early days the Pops have become icons of the Brisbane music scene, with the majority of their performances selling out. While the Celtic Celebration will focus on traditional Irish pieces, the group is equally adept at playing everything from Viennese operettas to show tunes. The QPO will give two renditions of the production at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre on May 14th. They are scheduled to start at 14:00 and 20:00 local time and run for two and a half hours, including a 20-minute interval. Tickets cost between AU$33 and AU$72 plus booking fee.
