Known worldwide for their adventurous musical spirit and instrumental virtuosity, sister groups from opposite ends of the globe, Aventa Ensemble and Ensemble Offspring team up with Brisbane new comers Kupka’s Piano in a one time coming together of distinctive new musical voices.
Combining to form a super group in works by Erik Griswold and Jordan Nobles, and featuring Australian premieres by Michael Finnissy alongside an array of Canadian and Australian works completely new to Sydney audiences, this concert will be an international feast of razor sharp rhythms and raucous fun.
Join us for this marathon style event of raw musical abandon, featuring three sets by three trans-pacific musical trendsetters.
