elvis costello rocks the sydney opera house

We went to see Elvis Costello play with the Sydney Symphony at the Sydney Opera House.

Again, he rocked.

I am always amazed by the Sydney Opera House whenever I go there. it is a truly amazing piece of architecture. We are so lucky to have this beautiful building in our own back yard.

Anyways, the concert was great. the first part was a performance from Il Sogno, which was was written for the Italian Dance Company, Aterballetto, for their adaptation of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.  The second part Elvis performs compositions that he has arranged for orchestra, together with songs arranged by Burt Bacharach, Bill Frisell, Steve Nieve and Vince Mendoza. It was amazing.
