Please join the Early Music Ensemble for an evening exploring the idea of chamber works, featuring Telemann's Trio Sonata in A minor and arias from Handel's Alcina, alongside Machaut's Messe de Nostre Dame. We highlight the performance of pieces by small ensembles, underscoring the connections made between performers, and performers and audience, in small, intimate settings.

Prize Winners Concert

This intimate and immersive concert presents world premieres by UQ composers working in close collaboration with their performing colleagues. Inspired by the hanging gardens, reflective pond and architectural lines of the Atrium, these new works respond directly to space, light and environment. Flexible staging and site-specific design will blur the line between performer and audience, creating a living installation of sound. Bold, contemporary and uniquely UQ, this concert showcases the creative future of Australian music.
