On this last day of the Wunderkammer, Jon Rose is closing the doors of perception with a concert on the Fence. Originally a commission from Kronos string quartet and The Opera House, Jon created four fences as concert stage replacements for the real outback thing.

He also made a prototype, and this he kept; you can hear it in an extended set today.  Following that, he will lead a guided tour of the museum, communicating and explaining the various bizarre and unlikely stories that have become associated with the collection.

Concerts every Sunday of April from 2PM at Delmar Gallery. 
Free Admission. 

From art music to pop music and everything in between, Sizzle returns to the Petersham Bowling Club for another year of free, family-friendly aural delights. 2018 features Ensemble Offspring’s virtuosic instrumentalists alongside two driving forces in Sydney’s music world; Satsuki Odamura and her Koto Ensemble and Alice Chance with her new work for you, the audience, entitled The Audience Choir. David Lang’s Cheating, Lying, Stealing whirls through the club alongside the Australian premiere of Erik Griswold’s Action Music 2, and we once again hear from 2017 Hatched Academy composer Ciaran Frame with his catchy quartet Listeners as Spectators. Our brand new Hatched Associate Artist, Georgina Oakes joins us for the first time on clarinet and Liz Jigalin returns with another interactive musical experience featuring her Sound Parcels downstairs – a one on one sonic adventure where you get to take home your own little sound parcel made live by Liz.
 

The Launch of Sydney’s newest weekly night of exploratory music.
Think 3 hours of the Knitting Factory on a Sunday night, followed by two hours of kooky, weird and left of centre DJs or live electronica.

2nd set: Mind on Fire

On a Monday evening in late November 2017, two of Australia’s most prolific musicians performed together in the living room of the late Peggy Glanville-Hicks. It was the first-time violinist Jon Rose and pianist Chris Abrahams had collaborated in a duo setting. 

What they created that night has resulted in their forthcoming album Peggy, a raw and vivid unedited recording of that meeting. To celebrate its release, Rose and Abrahams will collaborate again at Foundry616 tonight.
