In 2010, Sydney Philharmonia celebrates it 90th year and what better way to celebrate than take 120 choristers halfway round the world to perform at the largest and most prestigious music festivals, the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall in London.

We will also perform at Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral and Australia House in the presence of the Governor-General and present two world premieres by contemporary composers.

This blog I hope will capture some of the joy of this special tour but also the frivolity and naughtiness that might and should happen in July in London!

In my best Queen's English...I hereby declare this blog officially open!

Brett Weymark, Artistic & Musical Director
