Sydney Guitar Collective - On Tour is a concert series celebrating the expressive possibilities of the classical guitar ensemble through music by Australian composers and the artists who have inspired them. We warmly invite you to experience the richness, colour and lyricism of the guitar in an intimate chamber setting.
Established in early 2023, the Sydney Guitar Collective was created as a space for emerging professional musicians to continue their passion for chamber music beyond their university studies. Since then, the ensemble has developed a growing performance profile through self-presented concerts and appearances in established Sydney concert series. The Collective now comprises five musicians who are passionate about sharing the classical guitar with new audiences and championing its place on the concert stage.
This program highlights Australian guitar music and the close creative relationships the ensemble has formed with composers. It includes Elena Kats-Chernin’s Dance of the Paper Umbrellas and Richard Charlton’s Port Jackson Suite, written for the Collective. The ensemble has also collaborated with UK composer Vincent Lindsey-Clarke and commissioned new works from emerging Australian composers at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
Join us for an afternoon or evening of vivid, lyrical and engaging music, and discover the remarkable sound world of the classical guitar ensemble.
