We’re delighted to be back in the concert hall and performing the music we love, to the audiences we love, in 2022.
Our first concert of the 2022 Season, Piazzolla, tours to Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane from 1 to 14 February, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to be back on the stage.
But while our approach to music will be as risk-taking and exciting as ever, we are carefully taking every measure to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our musicians and audiences in the concert hall.
