The inaugural Global Orchestra event for Earth Hour was magnificently celebrated at Santa Sabina College on Saturday night. Our own SSO (Santa Sabina Orchestra) was exceptional, as was audience participation in a unique, collaborative music exercise with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. The live-streaming of the SSO performing ‘The Planets’ by Gustav Holst provided us with a very close up and personal perspective on the role of the conductor, David Robertson. While we were sitting on cushions on the floor, it was as if we were in ‘A reserve’. Thank you to all those families who joined us in this celebration for the planet.
