The Living Tradition
Selby & Friends celebrates its 20th Season.
The 20th Season of Selby & Friends in its current format opens with a return of two special guests who wowed audiences two years ago, Alexandra Osborne and Clancy Newman.
This dynamic duo joins Kathy Selby for a concert comprising two works that pay tribute to an earlier popular tune and two works that stand on their own as sublime examples of the early Romantic period composed shortly before their author's untimely deaths.
The trio by Fanny Mendelssohn was requested numerous times by members of the Selby & Friends audience, along with the Schubert in an audience survey. Whilst Beethoven's wonderful late work, the Kakadu Variations, do not have anything to do with our own great northern National Park, Selby & Friends begin with a terrific short work by Australia's own Elena Kats-Chernin.
Duration: 2 hours (incl. interval). Please note, running times are approximate and subject to change.
