LAUNCHING: Aether Duo an ensemble focused on the delivery of new and existing flute and piano repertoire consisting of Robert McIntyre on flute(s) and Sam Williams on piano. We are especially concerned with the promotion of Australian composers as well as curating offerings covering a range of important themes, such as climate change and LGBTQIA+ issues.
New Dawn will be our duo launch event excitingly held at @temporubato_au on SAT 29/06/2024, musically canvassing current and historically significant LGBTQIA+ composers, dealing with numerous elements pertaining to the lived queer experience, including the notion of ‘coming out’, in a world where the accepted standard is that we are all straight, and it is somehow divergent to be otherwise.
Performing snippets from the past, present and future celebrating Queer music, with works by Sally Whitwell, Aaron Copland, John Cage and Samuel Barber; and 3 world premieres by Sam Williams, Robert McIntyre and a newly commissioned work by Christine Pan.
