Event

BIFEM: Dead Oceans

Event Details

Argonaut String Quartet returns with a dynamic programme to close 2017 BIFEM. Along with the first Australian performances of works by Anahita Abbasi and Clara Iannotta, the concert features the BIFEM débuts of two local young composers: Samuel Smith, a composer with an increasingly expanding profile, and Caterina Turnbull in her first major festival appearance, commissioned by Julian Burnside QC. The string quartet remains an inexhaustible medium, and with these four amazing musicians, Argonaut String Quartet has proven itself to be a fan favourite in the previous two editions. An unmissable concert which will draw a charged weekend of music-making to a close.
