David Rowden & Maria Raspopova
The Sydney Morning Herald pronounced Omega Ensemble to be ‘One of the best chamber music outfits in town’. The core members hold principal roles in some of the world’s most renowned orchestras, including Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Opera Australia Orchestra and the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington, USA. They also release studio recordings and live recordings via their own Omega Classics label. For the Castlemaine State Festival they will perform Brahms’ Clarinet Sonata No. 2 in E flat major, Op. 120; Liszt’s Tarantella; Mendelssohn’s Rondo Capriccioso, Op. 14; Poulenc’s Sonata for Clarinet and Piano in B flat; and Widor’s Introduction et Rondo.
