The Australian Chamber Orchestra and Artistic Director Richard Tognetti return to UKARIA with a three-program weekend, featuring a combination of much-loved masterworks and important contemporary voices that showcase the ACO’s world-renowned energy and spirit.

The weekend concludes with celebrations of rhythm and vitality alongside some of the most exquisite music ever written. Jörg Widmann’s 180 beats per minute whizzes past at maximum speed, and young Australian composer Harry Sdraulig’s In Wild Country is hot off the press. In Pēteris Vasks’ sublimely meditative Viola Concerto, time stands completely still. The ACO says farewell with Brahms’ second String Sextet, the composer’s own farewell to a love that slipped away.
