Johannes Möller is Coming Back Down Under Next Month!

Fresh off the back off an extremely successful concert by the wonderful Canberran guitarist Minh Le Hoang (which I unfortunately wasn’t able to attend in the end, due to an unfortunate set of circumstances), the Melbourne Guitar Foundation have another fantastic concert lined up for Melburnian guitar aficionados.

If you’re looking for something to do in the evening of June 11th I highly recommend you head along to St Mary’s Church, 430 Queensbury Street, North Melbourne to check out none other than Johannes Möller.

Johannes, winner of the 2010 GFA guitar competition, is returning Down Under to play a full recital with a short support act featuring two of Melbourne Conservatorium of Music’s tertiary guitar students, Julia Bakowski and Yunjia Liu.

The Grigoryan Brothers ‘This Time’ National Tour and CD Launch

The Grigoryan Brothers, Slava and Leonard, are launching their new CD (This Time) at the Melbourne Recital Centre at 7pm on Thursday 23rd April with a performance of works from the album.

The performance will feature works by Nigel Westlake, William Lovelady, Luke Howard, Ralph Towner and the fantastic Melbourne-based composer (and all round good bloke) Shaun Rigney. The album and the performance will also feature orginal compositions by Slava and Leonard.

In honour of the 100th Anniversary of the landing at ANZAC Cove, this concert is in tribute to the Horwood Brothers of Preston, some of our ANZAC Local Heroes. Melbourne Recital Centre’s Local Heroes series this year shares the stories of local World War I heroes.

Head along and check out the fantastic playing of the Grigoryan Brothers and some of the greatest contemporary music for the classical guitar: http://www.melbournerecital.com.au/events/2015/grigoryan-brothers-this-time/
