Iconic Australian ensemble, the Goldner String Quartet in their farewell season, joins our Artistic Director for this stunning program of favourites. Beginning with a rarely played early Mozart Piano Concerto in the composer’s own arrangement for piano and string quartet followed by Tchaikovsky’s stirring string quartet in D, the concert concludes with one of the greatest of all piano quintets by Shostakovich. This is a program not to be missed as we say goodbye to an important Australian icon in a special celebration of old friends.
