TRIOS from across the world filled with colour, the mystical, dance and a fervent nationalist stance were brought vividly to life by Selby and Friends in the Llewellyn Hall last night.
On stage were three old friends and veteran Australian artists, Kathryn Selby, piano; Dene Olding, violin and Julian Smiles, cello.
The concert began with music from one of Australia’s most prolific composers, Ross Edwards and his “Piano Trio”. In the opening allegretto, the cello plays a central role through tones that convey a deep sense of longing. While the playful violin accompanies, the piano rolls along and its spirit becomes grander as the music progresses.
