The UQ School of Music proudly presents it's opening concert for 2026 with a performance of chamber music artistry by two of Australia’s most distinguished musicians: Paul Dean (clarinet/composer) and Alex Raineri (piano). This compelling program portrays lyricism, virtuosity, and contemporary reflection, bringing together works that explore the expressive breadth of the clarinet–piano partnership.

Silence - Before and After

Zelman Cowen Building (51)

Leoš Janáček’s quasi-operatic song-cycle takes place from midnight to midnight. It tells the captivating story of a village boy smitten with a girl. A glorious and grotesque, dream-like melodrama, this rarely-performed work for two soloists, piano and small chorus is a must see.

Victorian Opera’s performance stars Katherine McIndoe (soprano), Brenton Spiteri (tenor) and Alex Raineri (piano), with the Victorian Opera Youth Chorus Ensemble (VOYCE).
