Adelaide Festival 2026 Highlights

Ensemble Pygmalion

The Pygmalion choir and orchestra is a breath of fresh air in the international music scene, renowned amongst audiences and critics for perofrmances that are as energetic as they are excellent. Marking 20 years since their foundation, they make their long awaited Australian debut in a residency exclusive to Adelaide Festival.

Led by visionary founder and director Raphaёl Pichon, Pygmalion’s Adelaide Festival residency will profile three different programs over six concerts, showcasing their singular command of Baroque repertoire.

Bach: Good Night World

JS Bach’s choral repertoire is revered as the pinnacle of the genre, a high-water mark unsurpassed for three centuries. In an Adelaide Festival exclusive, experience Bach’s extraordinary craft, framed by the music of his forebears, in the hands of the finest Baroque performers of today.

The Thirty Years' War ravaged Germany in the early 17^th century and its political and spiritual upheavals are etched in the musical responses of the time. Out of violent conflict, composers sought to inspire listeners with a new sense of consolation, hope and beauty. This program will showcase the rare emotional intensity of this music, featuring what was perhaps Bach’s first cantata, and - as the centrepiece of the concert - his most ambitious and inspiring motet.

Orfeo by Luigi Rossi

The myth of Orpheus and his lost wife Eurydice grapples with the inescapable forces of love and death that define our existence. It has captured the imagination of composers, writers and audiences for millennia.

Highly sought after by Europe’s 17th century tastemakers, Italian composer Luigi Rossi was commissioned to write the first-ever opera for the French court while in exile in Paris. The result, his Orfeo, boasts some of the Baroque’s most sublime and original writing in a poignant blend of tragedy and comedy.

Rossi’s Orfeo was lost to the world for centuries. In this Australian premiere, rediscover this forgotten masterpiece brought to life with tenderness and passion, in a concert staging.

Monteverdi’s Vespers

Be transported through time and space to one of the cultural glories of western civilisation and spend an evening in St Mark’s Basilica, Venice at the dawn of the Italian Baroque.

Monteverdi’s rarely performed Vespers of 1610 – astonishing for the grandeur of its conception and the opulence of its sound – immediately conjures the splendour and pageantry of Venice’s golden age. In his setting of the Vespers, Monteverdi drew on centuries of sacred music tradition, but he broke the mould by bringing the theatricality and drama of opera into the church.

Over two special nights, Pygmalion will revive the spirit of St Mark’s through a spatialised performance of the Vespers in the spectacular acoustic of St Peter’s Cathedral.

Mary Said What She Said

Photo Credit: Lucie Jansch

One of the greatest stage and screen actors of our time, Isabelle Huppert delivers a spellbinding solo performance as Mary Queen of Scots. Directed and designed by the late Robert Wilson, a towering figure in avant-garde theatre, this production bears all the hallmarks of his creative genius.

Written by novelist Darryl Pinckney, with a score by celebrated composer Ludovico Einaudi, the work plunges us into the psyche of Mary Stuart - a woman involved in some of the most notorious plots of her time, and a woman exiled, isolated and misunderstood.

Rich in the symbolism and imagery that earned Robert Wilson the title of “the world’s foremost vanguard theatre artist,” this work is unforgettable - a propulsive exploration of identity and power.

FAQs about Vineyard Voyage

Which wineries are included on the tour?

Our wine tour partners, Cellar Door Tours, will enquire with you to pick 3-4 wineries based on your preferences. If you have a specific winery in mind, that can be incorporated in the itinerary.

Is lunch provided during the McLaren Vale wine tour?

A complimentary shared gourmet platter of artisan cheeses, charcuterie and fresh local produce will be offered to guest at midday.

Can the wine tour be customised?
