A very special music event is coming up shortly which should attract many fine music lovers, and it’s even better that it is for a good cause.

Long time friends and sometime collaborators Simon Tedeschi and Kevin Hunt are putting on a concert together which will see them transcend genre- where it will be hard for audiences to know where the jazz ends and the classical begins…stirring the jazz and classical realms into one musical recipe!

The two master pianists will serve up music from Bach to Duke Ellington, Gershwin and Brubeck as well as perform a new work by Hunt.

A very accomplished and versatile jazz pianist, over his time Hunt has  shared the stage with international artists including Herb Ellis, Billy Cobham, Sheila Jordan,  Larry Adler and our very own Don Burrows. He is currently recording an album based on works for the Stuart Piano and ancient Aboriginal chants of the Sydney region.

This exciting concert will take place in the New Hall at Sydney Grammar, Yurong Street entrance on Thursday 5 November at 7pm. The venue is wheelchair accessible and an AUSLAN interpreter is available.

The event is a fund raising event for the essential work of the Arts Law Centre of Australian in its continuing commitment to helping Australian artists.

Tickets are $60 full price, $30 for students and can be purchased at http://www.trybooking.com/159333.
