Album Review: Kate Miller-Heidke & The Sydney Symphony Orchestra - Live At The Sydney Opera House

Australian singer-songwriter Kate Miller-Heidke's classically trained voice and The Sydney Symphony Orchestra make the perfect combination.  

Her music - a blend of opera, folk and alternative pop - provides interesting material for an orchestral ensemble, but it works. Miller-Heidke's biggest pop hits like Caught In The Crowd and The Last Day On Earth, songs from her short opera The Rabbits and her quirkier, comedic songs are all stripped back and fantastically, orchestrally reimagined.

Pizzicato strings, operatic vocals, clarinet solos, glissandos and a song about an ex sending her a friend request on Facebook (Are You Fucking Kidding Me?) - Miller-Heidke's live album has it all.
