12th-century Magister Pérotin’s polyphony vs. the metal strings of The Omnific
Pérotin Beata viscera
The Omnific Kismet
The Omnific Objets de Vertu
Léonin Viderunt omnes
The Omnific That’s all she wrote
Pérotin Viderunt omnes
Our singers join forces with the rising bass guitar duo, Matthew Fackrell & Toby Peterson-Stewart from Melbourne metal band The Omnific for a resonant mix of plainchant, dynamic basslines, and 12th-century organum.
Featuring
Matthew Fackrell | Toby Peterson-Stewart | Susannah Lawergren | Ethan Taylor | Koen van Stade | Mark Donnelly | Antony Pitts
A collaboration across genres with a uniting interest in the deep resonances of vocal cords, struck strings, and powerful harmonies. A cluster of rising stars from Melbourne, The Omnific has already made a name for their unique rhythmic interplay and wordless metallic fantasias. The Omnific’s two five-string bass guitarists’ classic duo Kismet and other works are interleaved with multi-voice chanting and improvisation from the male voices of The Song Company in music from Magister Pérotin’s masterpiece Viderunt omnes and its late 12th-century inspirations, echoed by a high soprano in his most haunting of songs, Beata viscera.
Service: No Evensong in April but Evening Prayer instead.
The Choir is having a well break after Easter so this Sunday is evening prayer. All welcome.
Service: Field of Remembrance Service
The 23rd Annual Dedication Service for a Field of Remembrance in cooperation with the Partners of Veterans Assoc.

The Very Rev’d Richard Humphrey, The Dean of Hobart will be speaking.
All members of the public are cordially invited to attend and a special invitation is extended to ex-service personnel. After placing of the official crosses, the Field is then open to members of the public to the place small wooden crosses following the service.
On ANZAC Day, the crosses will be placed at the Hobart Cenotaph where they will form an integral part of the ANZAC Day commemorations.
The Field of Remembrance model adopted on the concept of Mrs CJ Pope, widow of Rear Admiral Pope RAN. In 1952 Mrs Pope, assisted by the War Widows’Guild, organised the first Field in the grounds of St Andrew’s Cathedral, Sydney by courtesy of the Cathedral Chapter, and with the encouragement of the Dean, The Very Reverend Dr S Barton Babbage. Similar Field of Remembrance Services are held in other Australia States under the auspices of the War Widows’ Guild of Australia.
