Review (Catherine Lawrence): Sacred Sonic
“Angel Strings is a talented strong quartet of professionally trained musicians with national and international experience (Laura Thompson, Hayden Burton, Katie Sillar and Kathryn McKee).The quartet’s repertoire extends across classical, jazz, pop, folk, country, trad, and more… so it is not surprising that Angel Strings celebrates its 21st birthday in 2025. And what better way to celebrate such a milestone than with a program of events that include music that is meditative, melodic, stirring, uplifting, and is a joy to experience.”
“The 2025 Anywhere Festival includes Angel Strings’ concerts at two very different venues: the Fortitude Valley St Patrick’s Church, and the Mt-Coot-tha Planetarium. The St Patrick’s Church Sacred Sonic featured Soprano Eva-Marie Perissinotto, and organist Eduarda van Klinken, in a program that included classical and non-classical music. Sadly, Sacred Sonic was a ‘one-night only’ event, and the Planetarium shows are already sold out. I suggest you follow Angel Strings if you want to catch a future show—and have a look at the 2025 Anywhere Festival Brisbane program for other ideas as to how to support local artists who are performing at a range of unique and interesting venues across Brisbane.”
