Benaud Trio crosses over to the ‘wrong’ side of the tracks, performing works that distort boundaries, transform the classics and put today’s talent in the spotlight. When Vivaldi is just not enough, Piazzolla ups the ante with his fiery and sensuous take on The Four Seasons. Acclaimed Australian composer Mark Isaacs does a classical-jazz crossover like no other in his new version of Closer, written especially for the Benauds. And some ‘chamber chill’ is provided by Adelaide-based composer Luke Altmann in Holy Fools.
