[CLOSED] Win Tickets to Huntington Music Festiva

Win Tickets to Huntington Music Festiva - The 25th Huntington Music Festival will be celebrated by a host of brilliant young artists making their Huntington debuts alongside established audience favourites. Also making a debut this year is the The Prelude Weekend on 22-23 Nov with two world-class chamber music concerts featuring headline festival artists. Festival Artists: Pianist Joyce Yang shot to worldwide attention at the 2005 Cliburn competition when as the youngest competitor she was awarded both the overall silver medal, and the chamber music prize. Leading Australian soprano Emma Matthews returns to the Huntington stage in Britten's dramatic work for voice and strings, Les Illuminations, alongside Copland's gorgeous settings of Emily Dickinson poems for voice and piano. 'Ray Chen can do pretty much anything he wants on the violin' (Washington Post). Taiwanese-Australian Ray has a stellar international career and Huntington performances include Beethoven's mighty 'Kreutzer' Sonata and the Divertimento from Stravinsky's ballet Le baiser de la f�e. The Goldner String Quartet plays a special part in the 2014 Festival, performing the premiere of Australian composer Paul Stanhope's third string quartet. Commissioned by the Huntington Estate to mark the 25th anniversary of the Festival, it is funded solely by members of the Festival's audience. The Chamber Orchestra of the Australian National Academy of Music, led by cellist Howard Penny, will show their mettle in string works by Debussy, Mozart, Mendelssohn and CPE Bach. Best-known to Australian chamber music lovers from their success at the 2011 Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition, the Amaryllis Quartet from Switzerland will be making their Huntington debut with music by Schumann and Brahms. Bernadette Harvey will display her pianistic virtuosity in Carl Vine's Fantasia quintet and Beethoven's 'Ghost' trio, as well as in the joyous four-hands Jeux d'enfants by Bizet in which she is joined by Timothy Young. Geoffrey Collins, one of Australia's great flautists, brings his golden instrument to make a special appearance at Huntington, as graceful soloist and accomplished chamber musician. He will be joined by a popular recent addition to the concert scene, Sydney's Enigma Quartet. Rising star of the bassoon Jack Schiller recently graduated from ANAM with a string of prizes to his credit, and was immediately snapped up for a Principal position with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
