Tchaikovsky & Prokofiev

Music from the intimate to the expansive
The widely appreciated Ku-ring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra is spreading its wings to deliver a concert in the marvellous acoustic of The Concourse which will not fail to leave audiences with a glow of awe and inspiration. The Concourse allows audiences to be part of the full scale orchestral and choral sound experience but up close and personal.

In this concert, four works will be presented by the KPO ranging from the newly minted to the familiar classics. eggshell by local composer and participant in the 2016 KPO Young Composers' Workshops, Kezia Yap, is a beautiful, delicate piece which will touch your emotions. The familiar and virtuosic Variations on a Rococo Theme by Tchaikovsky will be performed by phenomenal prodigy, 13 year old Benett Tsai on cello. Benett takes his place beside many other now famous performers as Outstanding Performer in KPO's 2017 Secondary Schools Concerto Competition, playing the artistically demanding Elgar Cello Concerto.

You will also be immersed in the impressionistic seascapes of Debussy's La Mer, together with Prokofiev's vast epic based on the life of 13th century legendary Russian prince, Alexander Nevsky in which local acclaimed mezzo soprano, Barbara Jin, joins the full choral force of the Willoughby Choir, with an expanded KPO filling the stage, all under the direction of conductor Peter Ellis.

The Seraphim Trio: Schumann Quintet

Event Date: 28/10/2018, 02:30 pm

Schumann Quintet and Korngold Suite for Delicious North Sydney Spring Concert
Sydney Symphony Concertmaster Andrew Haveron and violist Jacqueline Cronin join Seraphim Trio to perform Schumann's masterpiece, the Quintet in E flat major at the Independent Theatre late October.
The Sunday afternoon treat is part of the popular Prelude in Tea series that includes a mouth-watering selection of cakes and refreshements.

By pairing the keyboard as an equal partner with the established string quartet, Schumann invents an electrifying new genre capable of bringing chamber music out of the private salon and into the public concert hall.

To be equally treasured is Korngold's gorgeous Suite Op. 23 for two violins, cello and keyboard.
The suite was commissioned by left-handed pianist Paul Wittgenstein and reveals Korngold's Late Viennese heritage, combining a rich lyricism with modern rhythmic vitality.

Backtrack Boys

Event Date: 24/10/2018, 06:30 pm

This observational documentary, filmed over two years, follows boys in a youth program.
NOTE: winners will be asked to nominate the date and time they would like to see the film.

A group of troubled boys are on a perilous course towards jail until they meet up with the rough talking, free-wheeling jackaroo, Bernie Shakeshaft, and hit the road with his legendary dog jumping team.

This observational documentary, filmed over two years, follows boys in a youth program that Bernie runs from a shed on the outskirts of Armidale, a rural town in Australia. On the road, the boys find their voice, make great friendships and the dogs become national champions. But as the boy’s sleep under the stars at night the trauma is never too far away. With their survival and futures at stake they must constantly step up, push themselves, support each other and some days can be hard. This inspiring coming of age story reveals the challenges and triumphs these boys face as they try to find their place in the world, and the dogs that help tame their wild ways.

A life-affirming documentary, Backtrack Boys explores Bernie’s philosophy in action and through the journey of the kids in his care. It reveals how he helps them to navigate their relationships, deal with personal trauma, take responsibility for their own decisions and gain practical job skills so they can eventually create a sustainable future for themselves.
