We can’t wait to perform with the wonderful Canberra Symphony Orchestra tomorrow and Thursday night! We’ll be playing a stunning piece composed for us by our dear friend Nigel Westlake.

That’s a lot of notes!

Slava had a cracking time last week at the Australian Youth Orchestra’s National Music Camp. As one of the Artists in Residence he performed ‘Shadow Dances’ by Nigel Westlake and ‘Black Dogs’ by Iain Grandage. He also got to work with Lachlan Skipworth and the composition students as well as taking part in a discussion and Q & A session with the wonderful Ed Le Brocq. The energy and brilliance shown by the young musicians made it an immensely inspiring week!
We’re delighted that so many of you have already listened to ‘Amistad’, a piece that was composed for us by our dear friend, Luke Howard. ‘Amistad’ is the first single and title track from our upcoming album. We can’t wait to share more music with you in the coming months.
