Light-Song Concert 2

This is the second of two concerts infused with light and inspired by song that celebrate the powerful women transforming the heartbeat of classical music today.

On Saturday night in Elder Hall, experience the magical orchestral sounds created by the Russian composer Sofia Gubaidulina in Fairytale Poem alongside the melodic warmth of Ngaanyatjarra composer Vonda Last’s Awakening. Works by contemporary Australians Melody Eötvös and Elena KatsChernin will captivate your imagination, juxtaposed with selections from Mexican composer Hilda Paredes and the late, great
Kaija Saariaho. Curated by Cathy Milliken and conducted by Clément Mao-Takacs.
