Please come along to support local musicians making and performing music on Djaara country.

It’s always a joy to play with the lovely Bendigo Symphony Orchestra, and I can’t wait to play in their Bravo Bendigo programme, celebrating local talent in our region alongside Saint-Saëns epic Organ Symphony.
