The Scotch College Symphony Orchestra has been part of Scotch College for some fifty years. It first developed an enviable reputation for excellence under George Logie-Smith in the 1970s. Chris Latham took over from George, and brought with him a more holistic participation approach. From 1987, Dick Sheriffs conducted for the last four years of his extensive career at Scotch. The orchestra has been conducted by the current Director of Music, Dr John Ferguson, since 1991. The orchestra rehearses for two hours on Fridays after school, with weekly sectional rehearsals on Wednesdays for about 40 minutes. Places in the orchestra are determined by audition and staff recommendation, with minimum standards for string players set at above AMEB grade 8. Most first violins would normally have A.Mus.A. or L.Mus.A. diplomas. The aim of the orchestra is to give the students an opportunity to play classical repertoire in its original form in a properly balanced orchestra of some 70 or 80 players, comprising 40 – 50 string players, along with the required wind and brass. Parts are not ‘doubled’ (except when specified by the composer), so wind players learn the art of solo playing in an orchestral context. Symphonies and large-scale works are generally performed in their entirety, and recent repertoire has included Dvorak’s symphonies No 8 and 9 ‘New World,’ Franck’s Symphony in D minor, Tchaikovsky’s 2nd, 4th and 5th symphonies, and Elgar’s Enigma Variations. Other works include a host of concertos and overtures. The orchestra receives invitations to accompany various artists and organisations, including a performance of Yeomen of the Guard, presented by the Gilbert and Sullivan Society of Victoria. It also accompanied the Eton College Choir in a performance of Parry’s Blest Pair of Sirens in 2013. The orchestra has also received invitations to perform for festivals and events beyond the school. In recent years these have included an invitation to perform for the Governor of Victoria, an anniversary dinner for Ford cars, the Woodend Winter Arts Festival and a Tait Memorial Trust benefit concert. The orchestra has been broadcast within Australia as well as by the BBC, by Singapore Radio and by China Central Television. Most recently, the orchestra was selected to perform for the 2022 International Society of Music Education conference. It performed Elgar’s Enigma Variations in entirety. The orchestra often tours internationally. The first was a tour of Asia in the 1979 under George Logie-Smith. Other notable tours include China in 1986, England France and Belgium in 1995, 2005 and 2013, tours to Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Spain, a wonderful tour of five cities in China in 2010, and two tours to the USA (the last in 2020). The Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players have also performed in Zimbabwe, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai. Information Source: Free Concerts Europe | eventbrite

The Berlinische Galerie has devoted over 1000 square metres to presenting its collection. Waiting to be discovered among the roughly 250 works on show are paintings, prints, photographs, architecture and archive materials rarely or never displayed before. Walking around this exhibition is like time travel and takes visitors through Berlin in 17 chapters: the Kaiser’s era, the Weimar Republic, the Nazi dictatorship, the new beginnings after 1945, Cold War in the divided city, and the counter-cultures and unconventional lifestyles that evolved in East and West under the shadow of the Wall. In East Berlin, an alternative art community developed from the late 1970s. In West Berlin from the late 1970s, aggressive art by the “Neue Wilden” placed the divided city back in the international limelight.

With the Retrospective in the Neue Nationalgalerie, a comprehensive insight into the work of Nan Goldin from 1980 to the present day is given for the first time. Her individual series of works will be shown in the form of slide shows and films in pavilions designed by Hala Wardé in the upper hall of the Neue Nationalgalerie – each of these “buildings” is conceived in relation to the respective series of works; together they form a kind of village. After the opening in Stockholm and Amsterdam, the exhibition will now be shown in Berlin and will travel to Milan and Paris.

For the second time, the gallery Under The Mango Tree presents the Berlin artist Alper Emeklier (*1967). The solo exhibition, entitled Layer by Layer, explores the complexity of hybrid identity, with a focus on memories and longings that are shaped by the experience of migration, but cannot be attributed to it alone. On display is a range of paintings in oil on canvas that draw the viewer into Emeklier’s poetic perception of existence that come to life through his expressionist appropriation and exaggeration of the formalist concept of layering in painting.

Just be – Lass es raus! Kreativ-Workshop Ich glaube, dass jeder Mensch von Natur aus kreativ ist. Wir lieben es eigentlich, Dinge zu erschaffen, mit unseren Händen, unserer Stimme, unseren Gedanken. Aber oft ist unsere Kreativität wie verschüttet. Begegne deiner Kreativität wieder! Lass raus, was in dir schlummert! Dabei geht es vielleicht weniger darum, was du erschaffst, sondern eher darum, DASS du erschaffst. Beim Kreativ-Workshop gehört der Tag deiner Inspiration und Kreativität. Wir arbeiten mit Meditation und Visualisierung, und natürlich hast du ganz viel Zeit, um dein Creative Flow Bild zu gestalten. Meditation Wir beginnen mit einer Meditation. Komm in Ruhe an. Lass hinter dir, was du heute nicht brauchst. Stell eine erste Verbindung zu deinen Farben und Formen her. Visualisierung Nimm dir Zeit, um deine Ausdruckskraft entstehen zu lassen. Nimm wahr, was sich zeigen möchte, und spüre hinein, welche Gefühle oder Absichten dahinterliegen. Malen XXL Let it flow! Mach dein Bild zu deinem Bild. Lass raus, was kommt, ohne Wertung, ohne Druck. Nimm an. Genieße das Fließen im Entstehen und die Einzigartigkeit deiner Schaffenskraft.
