Bombay Chamber Orchestra
What can be more Mumbai than the Bombay Chamber Orchestra? The proudly Indian, city-based Western Classical orchestra, which also claims to be the oldest indigenous orchestra in the country, has just turned 60. And it is celebrating this musical milestone with a concert on March 18.
From orchestral masterworks by Mozart, Beethoven and Dvorak and operatic arias by Rossini, the concert will see French conductor Pierre-Alexia Touzeau in action. A special addition is two voices in the show, featuring soprano Farah Ghadiali and baritone Oscar Castellino. Both Ghadiali and Castellino are Mumbaikars, who have studied music in London and have individual international careers as featured soloists.
