Event Details
Plexus presents the world premieres of five works by major Australian composers, bonded together through the inspiration of the world’s diverse mythologies. Their music spawns variously from the pantheon of the ancient Greeks and Romans, the enigmatic world of the Celts, and the mystical culture of this country's first peoples.
Melbourne's newest chamber ensemble, Plexus, brings together the talents of three of Australia's most vibrant and versatile instrumentalists. They have commissioned over twenty composers for their 2014 season. They are joined for two of the works in this concert by acclaimed Australian tenor, Christopher Saunders.
Presented by Melbourne Recital Centre and Plexus.
