“All Rise”
Jazz at the Lincoln Centre Orchestra
with Wynton Marsalis
(Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Conductor Benjamin Northey,
Michelle Nicolle, Emma Pearson, MSO Chorus, Consort of Melbourne).
“The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra lived up to its reputation as supreme interpreters of this music, its garrulous horns meshing in seamlessly with the strings and percussion of the MSO. The large chorus – massive in sound – was used sparingly but always to dramatic effect, heightening the emotive reach of the music.
Michelle Nicolle, a renowned local jazz vocalist, was a standout, her resounding gospel cry of ‘I Say All Rise’ piercing the soul”
— Des Cowley, ABR ARTS
