Whether you’re a live music aficionado or a casual concertgoer, the widespread cancellation of live music events is, although necessary, hugely disappointing. While you may not be able to gaze down at musicians from a balcony or dance around to your favourite band at a festival, you can still enjoy some amazing live music from home!  

Later this month, our neighbours at Government House WA – who you may know from their sensational Music on the Terrace programs – will be performing three virtual concerts at the Melbourne Digital Concert Hall. These concerts, which will be recorded live from Government House Ballroom, will be a part of the new Satellite Nights – Perth series.

Tuning into virtual concerts at the Melbourne Digital Concert Hall is a fantastic way to support musicians who would otherwise be out of work. Tickets are only $24 and $20 will go directly to the musicians you are watching. Not to mention this series is filled with spectacular Perth talent and features a stunning selection of classical music, so each concert is bound to be a magical experience. 

Don’t miss out!

In this recital, Gladys Chua and Ashley Smith take the clarinet out of the orchestra pit and place it centre stage in an emotionally-charged selection of arias and virtuosic fantasias from the operas of Mozart, Rossini, Weber, Puccini and Verdi.
