The Benaud Trio is one of Australia's finest and most lively chamber ensembles. Celebrating their 20th anniversary with an exclusive Melbourne performance, pianist Amir Farid, violinist Lachlan Bramble, and cellist Ewen Bramble have established themselves as formidable performers of the standard repertoire and are well known for their outrageous pop-inspired encores.
Named for its six dumka movements, a Slavic folk ballad form that alternates between melancholy and exuberance, Dvořák's beloved masterpiece Piano Trio No.4 in E minor, Op.90 'Dumky' is chamber music at its most spirited. Paired with Jakub Jankowski’s evocative Piano Trio No. 2, experience an uplifting evening of striking contrasts as the Benaud Trio bring their characteristic warmth and precision to two compelling works.

Date: Saturday 12th July 2025
Time: 3pm
Venue: Primrose Potter Salon, Melbourne Recital Centre, 31 Sturt St, Southbank VIC 3006, Melbourne, Australia.

Join the New York Choral Society on May 10, 2025 at the NYU Skirball Center for This Love Between Us, a concert that juxtaposes the past and future of symphonic choral music, and explores powerful cross-cultural messages about the world’s shared humanity.
In this extraordinary evening, J.S. Bach’s radiant Magnificat meets a bold and deeply moving work by Indian-American composer Reena Esmail — This Love Between Us: Prayers for Unity. While Bach’s masterpiece overflows with joy and devotion in the Christian tradition, Esmail’s composition weaves together prayers and texts from seven faith traditions — Christianity, Buddhism, Sikhism, Zoroastrianism, Hinduism, Jainism, and Islam — highlighting universal themes of love, compassion, and understanding. Written in the wake of the divisive 2016 election, Esmail’s music is a powerful call for unity in an increasingly fragmented world.
Under the baton of Music Director David Hayes, the New York Choral Society will bring this stunning program to life, joined by the acclaimed Ensemble LPR, and celebrated artists from Brooklyn Raga Massive, Neel Murgai (sitar) and Tripp Dudley (tabla). The concert also features a stellar lineup of soloists: Liz Lang, soprano; Lucia Bradford, mezzo-soprano; Michael Kuhn, tenor; and Kenneth Overton, baritone.
Join us for an unforgettable evening that celebrates the unifying capacity of choral music.

Date: Saturday 10th May 2025
Time: 7:30pm
Venue: NYU Skirball Center, 566 LaGuardia Place, New York, NY 10012
