Festival of Turtles - Classical Music Concert

Festival of Turtles - Classical Music Concert
Featuring "Kurrajong Ensemble"

Kurrajong Ensemble will present a varied programme of music from the 18th century to the present day. For the C18th music Fran and Keith will be using flutes which are exact replicas of the instruments used at the time. These have an entirely different sound from modern instruments, and are played with quite different techniques. The salon music of the C19th provides some beautifully crafted repertoire from a time when most people played an instrument and would play together as recreation. This music is deceptively easy-listening on one level but surprisingly well crafted, fun to play, and sometimes flashy. Fran has composed some new works for Kurrajong Ensemble and we will present at least one of these in the concert.

The TACC Bar will be open to purchase drinks from 6:30pm and during intermission. Light nibbles will be provided during intermission.
