Come and hear the chamber groups and string orchestra (conducted by Donald Armstrong) perform works they have prepared during the last three days of the 2019 ASQ International Music Academy. Entry by koha/donation.

Our programme begins with Haydn's String Quartet in C Op 33 No 3. Nicknamed 'The Bird', this is a graceful and light-hearted work. It contrasts well with 'Unbound', an expressive, heartfelt work for string quartet written in 2011 by New Zealand composer Brigid Ursula Bisley. For the finale, we are delighted to be joined by Diedre Irons, one of New Zealand's finest pianists, for the sublime Piano Quintet in F minor by Brahms. Combining lyrical beauty and rhythmic muscularity, this is one of the best-loved chamber music works of all time. Tickets ($30 Adults, $20 Concessions, $60 Families - 2 Adults + 2 Children, $10 Children under 18yrs) from Eventfinda (booking fees may apply).
