There is nothing quite like experiencing the energy, passion and talent of young musicians on the edge of their professional careers. This September we harness that feeling in a specially curated concert featuring musicians from the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM).
ANAM is a renowned cultural institution dedicated to shaping the musical leaders of tomorrow. In this bold showcase, they perform one of Pierre Boulez’s most enthralling pieces, the Messagesquisse for seven cellos alongside Australian composer Richard Meale’s intriguing masterpiece, Incredible Floridas.
Plus, hear the word premiere of Sydney-based composer Jane Sheldon’s Talking with herself alone for singing violist. A commission through ANAM’s ambitious project – the ANAM Set – where ANAM musicians are paired with composers to collaborate and create new works.
This concert marks ANAM’s debut at The Nielson, yet ANAM musicians are no strangers to Australia’s premiere stages, presenting over 200 performances each year including regular performances with leading national and international guest artists, orchestras and ensembles.
"ANAM is an extraordinary institution: intense, demanding, challenging and immensely rewarding to be involved with. The musicians are totally engaged and committed."
– Simone Young AM, Conductor
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear our future musical leaders live – before the rest of the world catches on!
