A Musical Meteor Shower
The 2024 Festival launches into hyperspace with a stellar line-up of 21 artists presenting spectacular music from across the ages. Opening with a newly commissioned world premiere string quintet from visionary Wiradjuri composer Shauntai Sherree Abdul-Rahman – Wula Murun, speaking life into existence – the journey continues with haunting solo horn shooting for the stars, pulsations of Polish folk music, ancient cosmographic a cappella, and culminating in a ravishing and rarely performed piano quintet by legendary Hollywood film composer, Erich Wolfgang Korngold. There’s something for everyone in this exploration of a multiverse of genres, from thrilling works of right now back to our most familiar favourites. We have lift off!
