ABOUT THE ARTISTSFirebird Trio, like its mythical counterpart which shone magically through the darkness, sheds light on music from all epochs. Founded in 2010, Firebird Trio has performed nationwide to critical acclaim, with a vibrancy of imagination that echoes its name. Described by The Australian as ‘an ensemble of immense energy and focus’ and praised in The Age for their ‘togetherness, charisma and playfulness’, Firebird Trio continues to present a unique and thought-provoking concert experience. Thinking outside the box, their performances reflect the energy, colour and splendour of the Firebird, taking their name from Stravinsky’s iconic ballet suite.
Tango Esencia's Rina and Nadim Sawaya provide the ultimate Salon Tango experience through their natural earthiness, smoothness and connection they are recognised for. Rina and Nadim perform at many events and shows, among them, the prestigious dance halls in Buenos Aires as invited dancers, and have most recently placed as finalists at the Tango Dance Asian Championships, receiving the FJTA award in 2016.
Melbourne Recital Centre acknowledges the people of the Kulin nation on whose land this concert is being presented.
