SUMMARY:Musica Viva: Partridge String Quartet and James Morley
DESCRIPTION:Program\nHolly Harrison\nBalderdash \nFranz Schubert\nString Quintet in C \nMusica Viva Australia’s current FutureMakers\, the brilliant Partridge Quartet\, are sure to wow audiences with this knockout of a program.\nJoined by guest violinist Jos Jonker and cellist Daniel Smith\, the players’ preternatural rapport\, formidable musicianship\, and gusto for performance will make this an unforgettable experience. \nAbout the concert\nThe concert opens with Holly Harrison’s Balderdash\, commissioned for the Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition and receiving another well-deserved hearing here. A highly theatrical piece\, Balderdash explores musical ideas inspired by the electric guitar\, including distortion\, white noise\, and power-chords. Making use of punk-rock rhythms\, dissonance\, and percussive-based jams\, it encourages the traditional string quartet to behave like something of a rock band\, interrupting\, challenging\, and engaging in one-upmanship with each other. Influences as disparate as bluegrass\, grunge\, prog-rock\, metal\, and disco coalesce into something utterly unique. \nSchubert’s String Quintet in C Major couldn’t be more different. The composer’s final chamber work\, it is simply sublime and symphonic in scope\, helping to redefine at time of writing what a small string ensemble could accomplish. Impassioned and serene in equal measure\, the work constantly shifts in tone\, mood\, and colour\, but never loses its sense of quiet beauty. \n\nTuesday 1 March 2022 7pm & Saturday 5 March 7pm 2022 \n\nElisabeth Murdoch Hall\n\nDuration: 1 hours 15 mins (no interval) \n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\nPremium $153 ($133 Concession)\nA Reserve $122 ($107 Concession)\nB Reserve $92 ($80 Concession)\nC Reserve $64 ($56 Concession)\nUnder 40 $40

SUMMARY:Musica Viva presents Benedetti Elschenbroich Grynyuk Trio
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 3 November\, 7pm\nTuesday 20 November\, 7pm \nNicola Benedetti violin\nLeonard Elschenbroich cello\nAlexei Grynyuk piano \nWhen is a trio not just a trio? When it is this one\, comprising three stellar soloists. In their Southern Hemisphere debut\, the matchless combined talents of Nicola Benedetti\, Leonard Elschenbroich and Alexei Grynyuk will light up the stage. This is chamber music made by an A-team of young guns; and played with love\, because they insist on making room for its presence in their busy solo schedules. \nGiven who they are\, this ensemble’s program is more than just trios. Instead\, it offers a diversity of forms\, and a chance to better appreciate each performer\, in works for accompanied violin and cello. However\, their joy in playing in threes shines through in this arresting end to the Musica Viva season with two of the great masterworks of the trio repertoire by Brahms and Ravel. \n\nPROGRAM ONE\nMelbourne Weekend\, Brisbane\, Sydney Weekend\, Newcastle \nR STRAUSS Sonata for Cello and Piano in F major\nR STRAUSS Sonata for Violin and Piano in E-flat major\nGordon KERRY (b 1961) Piano Trio no 2 Im Winde\nBRAHMS Piano Trio no 2 in C major\, op 87 \nPROGRAM TWO\nPerth\, Sydney Weekday\, Canberra\, Adelaide\, Melbourne Weekday \nPROKOFIEV Cello Sonata\nPROKOFIEV Violin Sonata no 2\nGordon KERRY (b 1961) Piano Trio no 2 Im Winde\nRAVEL Piano Trio

SUMMARY:Musica Viva presents Joyce Yang
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 24 July\, 7pm\nSaturday 28 July\, 7pm \n“Her attention to detail and clarity is as impressive as her agility\, balance and velocity.” \nWashington Post \nJoyce Yang is one of the leading pianists in the newest generation of virtuosi. As the youngest competitor in the 2005 Van Cliburn Competition\, she was awarded a silver medal and she has since gone on to countless other accolades and a skyrocketing career. On her first full Australian recital tour\, she presents a program of music that pianists love to play\, and piano lovers love to hear. \nOffering a true understanding of such a beloved instrument\, these rich and characterful works all come from composers who themselves were masters of the keyboard.
