Thank You Australian Haydn Ensemble

Thank you Australian Haydn Ensemble for making the Society's concert on Friday such a memorable night. Your Boccherini, Haydn and Mozart works were elegant and joyous, full of crystalline beauty. It was a performance that showed masterful technique, panache and warm rapport.

Tony Burke from ClassikON came to the concert. You can read his review on the ClassikON website. "Welcome debutants", "faultless", "sensitively played" were some of the words he used to describe the performance.

These are our favourite pre-concert rehearsal photos.
