A few months back, I featured a composer/musician in my article on Bright Young Things.
Anthony Moles is a Sydney-based Darwin boy, currently completing his PhD at the University of Sydney. He has a wealth of talent – his music has been performed by The Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, The Queensland Conservatorium Chamber Orchestra, The Ku-Ring-Gai Philharmonic, The Saint Cecilia Chamber Orchestra and The Song Company. In short, the man is making waves.
Anthony’s latest composition, a collaboration with Sydney based composer, sound/visual artist and broadcaster Julian Day, promises to be his best yet. Julian is interested in creating evocative works through simple yet surprising means. He is also drawn to dark and obsessive themes – obsolescence, damage, defeat – and to driving, brutal rhythms drawn from hip hop, rock and pop. Check out more about him and his work at http://www.julianday.com/
The pair are showcasing ‘BAD BLOOD’, an evening of taut, energetic and monumental new works for piano, cello and drum kit in funky Glebe, Sydney, later this month. Musicians performing the pieces are recognised as the best Sydney has to offer; Geoffrey Gartner on cello (Ensemble Offspring), Joshua Hill on drums (Synergy Percussion) and Zubin Kanga on the piano (Ensemble Offspring).
The concert is described as “a mix of acoustic/amplified/electronic and classical/popular/post-minimalist music”. There will also be featured artwork by Alita Graziano.
BAD BLOOD promises to be an evening with a difference – high energy, thought provoking and above all, a chance to enjoy some of the finest musicians in Australia.
BAD BLOOD Friday 18 March 7.30 pm @ Cafe Cafe Church Glebe, 37 St John Rd (off Glebe Point Rd), Sydney. $20/10 includes glass of wine.
We have one double pass to give away to our Sydney-based readers for the event. To go into the draw email your name to lintan@trespassmag.com. Please remember to put ‘BAD BLOOD’ in the title of the email.
