Friday 28–Sunday 30 July 2023
Musicians from the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra and the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) come together for a weekend of concerts curated by violist and member of the Gewandhaus Orchestra, Tahlia Petrosian. Performing repertoire that explores 'The Relevance of Cultural Tradition in the 21st Century', this aptly named festival brings musicians from the world's oldest symphony orchestra together on stage with the next generation of Australian performers, and promises a weekend of exhilarating performances, exchanges and discussions.
The theme of this festival is particularly significant to our Founder, Ulrike Klein AO, who established UKARIA to inspire people through culture. In 2023 she celebrates 40 years in Australia and her 80th birthday in June. These concerts also serve to honour her magnificent contribution to music.
Proudly supported by the Goethe-Institut.
