Dear Friends of Music Matinee, 

We would like to thank the Aneres Piano Trio, Yitong Zhang Piano, Raistlin Chan violin and Ethan Chiao Cello for their wonderful performance at our concert on the 16th. Over 80 friends and visitors enjoyed the performance given by these students from VCASS and they are a constant reminder to us all that music is in great hands in Melbourne teaching establishments.

We trust they go on to continue to thrive in playing music to appreciative audiences for many years to come.

Our next concert on May 7th at 1.00 at The Scots' Church will again be by VCASS students -The Sturt Street Six

                 Violin   Hannah Tyrell,  Honami Yum

                 Viola.   Tom Protat, Pascal Uxo Willliams

                 Cello.    Ethan Chiao, Mahalia Shelton

                Associate artist Julie Haskell

They will combine to start and finish with sextets and then each perform on their individual instruments in duet form with some of the most lovely music ever written. 

It will be wonderful to be a part of this unique event as our young people showcase their great talent and appreciation of a range of marvellous composers. 

We would like to extend our special thanks to Dr Julie Haskell and all the staff at VCASS who make these wonderful concerts a possibility. Please read her detailed concert notes on our website www.musicmatinee.org 

May we suggest to reward the efforts of these great young students you bring a friend or two along to enjoy this with you.  

We have a date for you to note in your diaries for our Celebration of Music at Wesley College Prahan. Sunday afternoon August 18th. As per last year it will include lots of wonderful music and a scrumptious afternoon tea at interval and the accompanying raffle. Keep the date free, it will be well worth it.

Please let us know by return if you no longer wish to receive these newsletters. 

We would also like to hear any feedback from you and if their is anyone wishing to volunteer we’d love to talk to you. 

Your Music Matinee Team
