The Luminescence Chamber Singers

Conductor Roland Peelman AM

A garden teeming with temptation and desire, grotesque creatures and improbable scenes of surrender: the uninhibited world of Hieronymus Bosch’s 500-year-old triptych “De tuin der lusten”. Baffling his Dutch contemporaries and the casual tourists in Madrid’s Prado in equal measure (not to mention generations of art critics) Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights is ever-enigmatic. Whether it is interpreted as a paradise of indulgence or as a stark warning about moral decay during a time of rapid change, this art exudes dread and seduction in equal measure.

Trust Luminescence Chamber Singers to turn this surreal feast of the senses into an aural tapestry as pleasurable and perilous as Bosch’s vision. From daring modern transgressions to the vaults of Renaissance raunch, Garden of Earthly Delights offers a vocal cornucopia of surprise and surreptitiously cheeky delight.
