Con Vivo Music: Rhapsody in Brew

We are dipping our toes back into real life, in-person music!

Rhapsody in Brew is a spirited program that brings classical music outside the concert hall. Audiences are invited to grab a drink and enjoy the music. This vibrant concert features George Gershwin’s jazz-infused Rhapsody in Blue alongside living composers Judd Greenstein, Alexandra Gardner, and Michael Salvatore Grebla. We are excited to partner with Departed Soles Brewery to present this concert!

Melbourne Chamber Players: Intimate Expressions

Intimate and moody, Shostakovich's powerful Piano Trio No. 1 begins an evening of music from prodigious imaginations. This youthful work reveals a vulnerable romantic, an innate melodist full of hope and passion. A gripping premiere follows by New York-based Australian composer Michael Grebla, whose music is captivating, introspective and above all, human. Arvo Pärt's stunning and serene retelling of Mozart's Adagio from Sonata in F Major, K. 280 suspends time before Robert Schumann's effervescent Piano Trio No. 2 uplifts in an elegant finale full of warmth and optimism.
