Australian Youth Orchestra: AYO Chamber Players: Concert I

The best music, up close.

Take a front-row seat and experience the wonderful world of chamber music with Australia’s rising musical stars. From wind quintets to brass ensembles and string quartets, this is your chance to get up close and personal with the instruments of the orchestra.

The program features a deeply moving new work by Melbourne composer Lee Bradshaw-an Octet commissioned in memory of Emanuel (Manny) Arcaro by his family. The award-winning Flinders Quartet, renowned for their rich sound and innovative programming, will guide and perform alongside AYO’s musicians. Together, they bring this special project to life, offering a powerful exploration of music as a medium for reflection, connection, and healing.
