AVÉ - The Long Moment

AVÉ (Australian Vocal Ensemble) brings together four of the country’s leading singers in a performance that places Australian composers and writers at its heart. In an intimate chamber setting, AVÉ presents newly commissioned works shaped by the words of Tim Winton AO. 

The program features compositions by Emma Jayakumar, Ruben Davies, Lachlan Skipworth, Aaron Wyatt, Andrew O’Connor and Katie Noonan. With vocal works that respond to Winton’s unmistakable language in music that feels expansive and unmistakably Australian, the ensemble will also pay tribute to the golden age of vocal polyphony with AVÉ’s interpretations of music by Bach and Tomás Luis de Victoria.

This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
