Vivid Sydney is back! This time last year I was beside myself with excitement at the thought of Robert Smith and the original Cure band members reforming for a special performance at the Opera House, and this year looks to be as exciting as 2011. Vivid LIVE at Sydney Opera House (May 25 – June 3) is part of Vivid Sydney (May 25 – June 11), the city’s annual festival of light, music and ideas. Now in its fourth year, Vivid Sydney has become Australia’s major festival in winter and is one of five signature events on the NSW Events Calendar developed by Destination NSW on behalf of the NSW Government.
Opening the festival on May 25, Florence + The Machine will perform with the Ceremonial Orchestra in a special Concert Hall engagement. Featuring over 40 performers onstage, this performance will represent the largest incarnation of the group yet.
For me it's all about Janelle Monae! Exclusive to Sydney and making her Australian debut for two nights on 26 and 27 May, Janelle Monae & The Archandroid Orchestra will electrify the Concert Hall with her ambitious mix of R&B, funk and cinematic pop. In addition there is The Temper Trap, Shut up and Play and another 20 more acts!
And lastly - Imogen Heap has been behind some of the biggest names in the business and is an amazing artist in her own right set to perform on 29 May.... early information only visit http://www.vividsydney.com and stay tuned!!!
