Tim Wayne-Wright: Hey everybody, it's Tim Wayne-Wright here, Academy Director at UNSW.
Well, I've been asked to send you four of my most favourite pieces ever written. So I'm going to send you three choral pieces and one orchestral piece.
So the first choral piece is going to be by William Byrd, the English composer from the Renaissance era, and that's Sing Joyfully. The second piece, let's go with Orlando di Lasso. Now he was a composer also from the Renaissance era and his piece Musica Dei Donum, Music the Gift from God, that's also one of my favourites.
And the last choral piece I'm going to go with the Irish folk song Danny Boy. In the King's Singers we used to sing this piece a lot, it was one of our crowd favourites and it's in a beautiful arrangement by Peter Knight. The last piece is an orchestral piece, again another English composer I'm afraid, the great Vaughan Williams and his Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis.
Well over the last few months I've been coaching two choirs from UNSW, both Corde and the small vocal consort of four singers. Now I've been teaching them all about acapella music and really increasing their skills in that craft. I've been online with them as I mentioned but I'm actually coming over to UNSW in a couple of weeks time.
Now if you don't have your tickets for Words of Wisdom, the concert at the Sir John Clancy Auditorium, you must get them. It's going to be an evening full of beautiful choral music and it starts at 7pm. So that's 7pm, Thursday I think, the 2nd of October and it's going to be a really fun evening.
That's with Corde and the director Sonia Maddock. So I look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible. See you on the 2nd of October.
See ya!
