Avant Gardens 4: Naturale
March 28, 2021 @ 5:00 pm – 6:15 pm
For our final Avant Gardens concert, Naturale we head into the garden of our Artistic Director, Claire Edwardes to make some extra special noise. Joined by viola virtuosi James Wannan, the duo present Luciano Berio’s popular extended work for viola, percussion and recorded singer Naturale alongside Peter Sculthorpe’s classic Sonata for Viola and Percussion. Two world premieres from composers ‘across the ditch’ round out the program with Stings and Wings from Tasmanian based Maria Grenfell and Bricks and Mortar from New Zealand’s Karlo Margetic. Jason Noble joins the duo on clarinet for this final work. Don’t miss out on our very last intimate concert event as part of Avant Gardens and be touched by meaningful musical experiences that you won’t forget!
