Spain/Australia
All great compositions begin with an idea and an exploration.
Join the voice and guitar duo of Quin Thomson and David Malone followed by a rare collaboration between José María Gallardo Del Rey and a string quartet, as they explore new possibilities through a selection of premieres and rarely played works.
Quin Thomson’s voice and David Malone’s guitar combine effortlessly as they premiere works by Maria Grenfell and Quin Thomson, as well as beloved songs from the genre.
José María Gallardo Del Rey has achieved universal public and critical acclaim as an artist with a profound affinity for all aspects of the guitar. On this remarkable occasion he is joined by a string quartet for the Australian premiere of his own composition Altamira, and the world premiere of a quintet by the extraordinary Australian composer Gerard Brophy.
