Of Love and War

One sonata from a honeymoon, and another from the First World War. Grieg’s delightful Second Violin sonata was written just after his marriage.

Australian composer Arthur Benjamin penned a sonata 1918, the same year he became a prisoner of war after his plane was shot down. The Heads of the Elder Conservatorium’s Strings and Keyboard departments join forces for this concert.

Admission is $14, only available at the door from 12:30pm. If you plan on attending regularly you could save up to 30% by purchasing a Gold Pass subscription!
