Ensemble Vinifera-Summer

Event Date: 16/02/2014, 03:00 pm

Three works by three of the greatest composers of the Classical period
This summery programme of three works by three of the greatest composers of the Classical period. All these works were written within a decade at the close of the 18th century. Despite this short chronological span the programme is full of variety as with all our concerts.

We begin our year fittingly with Haydn’s Sunrise Quartet published in 1799, displaying the mature mastery of the form which Haydn is credited with having fathered. We then step back a mere year to a young Beethoven with his String Trio Op.9 No.3. This is a relatively early work for Beethoven at age 28, just at the point where the full dramatic style of his best known works is just becoming apparent. Finally we jump back a decade to near the end of Mozart’s brief but spectacular career and perform his beloved Clarinet Quintet in A, K.581, written for Anton Stadler in 1789.

Vivien Jeffery (violin)
Ella Brinch (viola)
Andrew Wilson (cello) and
John Lewis (clarinet)
are delighted to welcome violinist Anna Albert back as our guest performer in this concert.

This concert is proudly supported by The Australian Elizabethan Theatre Trust.

Program:
Haydn String Quartet Op.76, No. 4 in Bflat, “Sunrise” (appr. 20 minutes)
Beethoven String Trio Op.9, No.3 in C minor (appr. 23 minutes)
Interval (15 minutes)
Mozart Clarinet Quintet in A, K.581

The Dead Ones

Event Date: 18/02/2014, 07:00 pm

"Immaculate storytelling by Margie Fischer, universal and deeply affecting theatre ..."
The Dead Ones is an exploration of memory, death, family and
the power of objects through storytelling and photography.

After everyone in her family died, Margie was left to clear out their house.
She became fascinated by what is left when loved ones die and
documented her feelings and the processes involved.
The Dead Ones explores her family stories though the objects left behind.
Part theatre, part slideshow, part wake, part homage to William Yang, The Dead Ones is
a deeply moving personal journey into Margie Fischer’s family that has resonance for us all.

Mike Nock Quartet

Event Date: 14/02/2014, 08:30 pm

Spend Valentine's Day listening to one of Australia's greats
Come and spend Valentine's Day listening to an exceptional piano quartet led by one of Australia's jazz greats - Mike Nock.

Mike Nock has had a career spanning decades across USA, Europe and Australia, has composed and recorded extensively, worked with many high profile musicians globally and nurtured many a young rising star. Since his 1985 return to Australia, his groups have maintained a tradition of introducing outstanding younger musicians to Australian audiences and this band is no exception.

A stellar quartet, featuring new addition and drumming sensation Oli Nelson (winner of the 2013 James Morrison Scholarship), saxophonist Karl Laskowski and heavyweight bassist Brett Hirst, this quartet plays today’s jazz at its exciting best - expect a program of Mike’s originals along with selected jazz standards.

An exciting night of music – expect sparks to fly!

“Pianist Mike Nock created an hour of in-the-moment magic, eschewing flash for feeling and ego-less empathy.”
-The AGE. 2013

The Sound Of Music

Event Date: 21/02/2014, 07:30 pm

Back by popular demand: Sing-A-Long-A Sound of Music
The unforgettable Sing-A-Long-A Sound of Music experience is back again for three performances ONLY.

Sing-A-Long-A Sound of Music is a major audience participation event and an unparalleled night of entertainment where the audience become the stars of the show! See the classic movie on the big screen, re-mastered to its original cinematic glory and with SONG SUBTITLES on the screen so whether you’re an avid Sound of Music enthusiast or only know a lyric or two, the song sub-titles ensure no one misses a beat!

This year’s event sees the return of the sensational Marika Aubrey as your Host! Currently gracing the stage as part of the stellar cast of 'South Pacific' and having dazzled an array of cabaret audiences across Australia and the United States, Marika will guide the animated crowd in song and action as well as judge (with a little bit of help from the Audience Clap-O-Meter!) the show’s famous audience costume parade.

For all Sing-A-Long-A- newbies, be prepared to pull out your Leisl-inspired Gazebo gown, press your best white dresses with blue satin sashes, whip up some Lederhosen made from curtain fabric, or even brown paper (packages) tied up with string! There will be everything from gaggles of nuns to goats and goat herders, even the Alps themselves! Limited only by your imagination!

A tremendous atmosphere fills the theatre, one that is well worth while experiencing first-hand, as the crowd goes wild at those iconic moments - cheering when we see our beloved Julie Andrews for the first time, wolf-whistles for the Captain, hisses for the Baroness – a favourite……and big boos for the Nazis!

So get together with a few of your favourite friends, whip up a cozzie, warm up those vocal chords and get ready to be a part of the ultimate sing-a-long experience as we celebrate the world’s favourite movie music
