FREE FAMILY WORKSHOP:
The Hungry Numbat
An interactive musical storytelling with Bindi McFarlane and the Bronzewing String Quartet
​
Sat 3 July, 11:00am
Tanunda [Langmeil Lutheran Church]
Project Partners:
Royal Commonwealth Society [SA Branch] | Trinity College [Gawler]
Aimed at the under 12s, this event is fun for the whole family: you can bring an instrument to join in with a triangle, a drum, baby’s favourite rattle, a violin, or a clarinet – but maybe not your piano! (Don’t worry, if you don’t have an instrument, there will be some available on the day). Bindi will tell the story of a Hungry Numbat, musically illustrated by the Bronzewing Quartet.
Adelaide born Belinda McFarlane is a professional violinist and educator, primarily with the London Symphony Orchestra. Bindi has performed with the likes of Sir Simon Rattle, Zubin Mehta and Simone Young; with primary school children, Special Schools and Adult groups, Australian Youth Orchestra and Australian World Orchestra.

Morten Lauridsen - O Magnum Mysterim
Jonathan will conduct our chamber choir in old and new works, some a cappella and some with orchestra.
The program will celebrate the magnificence of
the European Baroque and the traditions it spawned across the globe. Hauntingly beautiful ecclesiastical repertoire links to the contemporary American scene as well as the styles that America in turn gave to the world by fusing European
and African traditions. And a new commission
by talented Adelaide composer Jakub Jankowski reflects on the effect of recent restrictions on our social and private lives.

Villa-Lobos sits neatly between the ground breaking creativity of Debussy on the one hand and on the other, the pleasing atonality of the celebrated 20th Century Japanese composer, Toru Takemitsu.

Josh van Konkelenberg
Composer / Pianist
Recital for Soprano & Piano:
Heritage and Renewal
-
Anton Dvorak - Gypsy Songs
-
Joshua van Konkelenberg - Daphne
Two contrasting works for solo female voice. Dvorak’s cycle idealizes the bond between humans and nature, and Adelaide’s Joshua van Konkelengberg re-tells Ovid’s Metamorphoses legend from Daphne’s tragic perspective. Set in a forest, and torn between dream, myth, and reality, the work portrays the schism between what we want and how the world truly is.
