About this Event
What’s the saying? Not too heavy, not too light – just right! After a big weekend of listening, settle in for our final concert designed as the perfect musical palate cleanser. This irresistible classical taste tester brings together short, sweet gems for string quintet, ranging from Bach and Beethoven to Piazzolla and bold contemporary voices. Performed in the luminous surrounds of the Stanthorpe Art Gallery, this breezy program moves effortlessly from the intimate to the uplifting. Sublime, varied, and deeply satisfying, it’s the ideal way to wind down the Weekender and head home on a high.
