Saturday August 31 @ 2pm
Musica Viva 'Strike A Chord' Competition
Firebird Trio is delighted to be presenting a mentoring prize to a deserving young piano trio, at this, Australia's national chamber music competition for secondary school students.
"Paul Schoenfield’s jazz and honky-tonk splashed Café Music delivers a dizzying dose of 1920s and 1930s swing in its outer movements and the gentle amble of folk and spiritual traditions in its lyrical middle. The chomping finale saw Firebird crank up another notch, sweeping and sparkling through this unabashedly optimistic work with the sort of abandon only a supremely disciplined ensemble can get away with."
.... Eamonn Kelly - The Australian
