WHAT'S ON

Island Signal, Island Song

Let the tide of music carry you beyond the horizon

SAT 9 MAY | 7:30PM | THE PLAYHOUSE, AANT CENTRE

Islands capture our imagination as places where the sea meets the land, where cultures exchange signals across distance, and where solitude sparks creativity. This concert gathers music shaped by those powerful images.

Young Artists Perform at Southern Cross Care

Our Young Artist Program finished off a busy Term 1 with a Community Concert at Southern Cross Pearl Supported Care in Fannie Bay. The students Term 1 repertoire connected to the DSO’s first concert From Common Ground, with the Young Artists exploring works of Theme and Variations.

After the performance the students went out into the audience to meet some of the residents in the audience to connect with them and share a little about their YAP experience. A huge thank you to Southern Cross Pearl Supported Care for hosting our performance.
