Yarra Winds is a woodwind sextet consisting of prize winning students from the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music – University of Melbourne.
Its members are Anika Weibgen on oboe, Ella Kay-Butterworth on flute and piccolo, Michael Beech on clarinet, Jamilla Lamb on clarinet and bass clarinet, Sam Battock on bassoon and Khye Cash on the French horn.
“Join us to experience the serene and soothing sounds of woodwind instruments in a lunchtime classical concert,” South West Music said.
“Let the flute's gentle whispers, the clarinet's rich tones, and the oboe's mournful melodies transport you to a world of elegance and refinement”
“The intricate finger work and breath control of the musicians will leave you in awe.
“The concert will feature timeless masterpieces by Leos Janacek and Astor Piazolla”
The 2pm concert will be free for people under the age of 18, and for live music subscribers.
