David Greco in recital with Vatche Jambazian: Recital Various

Join us for an intimate performance from outstanding Australian baritone David Greco, accompanied by pianist Vatche Jambazian. The concert follows a young man’s journey through love, loss and wondering, painted against a backdrop of English pastoral life. The program includes works by composers Ralph Vaughan Williams, Ivor Gurney, Benjamin Britten, George Butterworth and Peggy Glanville-Hicks.
About David Greco

Internationally regarded for his recordings of Schubert lieder and the cantatas of J.S Bach, ARIA Award-nominated baritone David Greco was the first Australian singer in 2012 to be appointed a position with the Sistine Chapel Choir in the Vatican, Rome.

Now an acclaimed interpreter of opera and concert work, he appears regularly with Australia’s finest orchestras, most recently in Britten’s War Requiem with Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and in Verdi’s Requiem in the Sydney Opera House with Sydney Philharmonia Choirs.

David’s PhD in 19th century Historical Voice led to his celebrated ABC Classics recordings of Schubert’s Winterreise and Die schöne Müllerin with early keyboardist Erin Helyard.

David is a Lecturer in Voice and Opera at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
