Mitchell Conservatorium's version is the reverse of the video, because our performers are two men and one woman: Prem Love, Phil Braithwaite and Cindy Fox, all teachers at our Bathurst campus.

The concert also includes some beautiful Bach, Doppler's Hungarian Fantasy and a piece that is becoming very popular around Bathurst: Eliza's Aria, from Elena Kats-Chernin's Wild Swans ballet.

Music You Can't Get Out Of Your Head

Have you heard this beautiful piece of music? It is one of the most popular pieces of contemporary Australian music. It is called Eliza's Aria and was composed by Elena Kats-Chernin for her ballet Wild Swans, which is based on a Hans Christian Andersen story about Eliza, a princess, whose eleven brothers have been transformed into wild swans by a wicked witch. Eliza must knit magic shirts from stinging nettles to break the spell.

The tune is the third most performed in UK television advertising.

We heard it recently in a staff concert performed by Prem Love and Elena Day-Hakker, in a student performance opportunity, played by Chloe Walker and Elena Day-Hakker and then by David Pereira (cello) and Alice Giles (harp) at All Saints Cathedral.

Not sick of it, yet. There are several interesting versions of it available on Youtube, including Sarah Cracknell's The Journey Continues.
