- **Event Name**: Home | Wollongong
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 09:30 am (+11:00)
- **Event Description**: 🎵 This is what home sounds like. 🎵
 
HOME celebrates a decade of Steel City Strings bringing classical music to the Illawarra – ten years of music-making rooted in community, place, and shared experience. This special concert also marks a moment of heartfelt gratitude as we farewell two extraordinary longtime volunteers, Yve Repin and Lyndall Fowler, whose dedication and belief in this orchestra have helped shape who we are today.

Inspired by the beautiful place in which we live and create, Home brings together music that speaks to belonging, memory, and connection. The program features two beloved pillars of the string repertoire – Dvořák’s evocative Nocturne and Mendelssohn’s youthful yet radiant String Symphony No. 10 – alongside two world premieres that expand the idea of “home” within the string tradition.

Barry Conyngham’s Under the Escarpment*, written by the internationally recognised composer and Wollongong local, draws inspiration from the dramatic landscape that surrounds us, while Adriel Sukumar’s Visions of Home* is a deeply personal new work shaped by reflections from Steel City Strings musicians and community members on what home means to them.

With additional music by Andrew Ford and Elena Kats-Chernin, Home is an invitation to gather, to listen, and to celebrate the many ways music can make us feel that we belong.
