Event description

EMERGING CONCERT ARTIST SERIES

Exceptional Young Artists Sharing the Joy of Music

A program rich with favourite composers from J.S. Bach and the classical charm of Haydn and Beethoven through to the romantic voices of Chopin, Scriabin and onto the twentieth century with Debussy, Albeniz and Rachmaninov.

Xingyao (Elsa) Lee and Lucas Wang study in the Rising Stars Program at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music with Natalia Ricci. In 2023, Elsa and Lucas participated in the Sydney International Piano Competition Showcase to much praise.

Elsa has also been successful in national and international competitions in recent years. We are pleased to welcome her back; she performed in our first ECAS in 2022. Lucas is the recipient of the Kathleen Holmes McCrea Pianoforte Scholarship and has enjoyed success on numerous occasions in Sydney and Eisteddfods. Lucas has also busked on the streets playing the Hulusi, a Chinese wind instrument.

Sharing the Joy of Music in the Community

InspireMusicAust is a not-for-profit that nurtures emerging classical, jazz, and world musicians by creating performance opportunities in the community. InspireMusicAust is committed to increasing accessibility to classical, jazz and world music within the community. Our concerts are often scheduled at a time of day, making them available for those who find concerts at night difficult. We partner with venues to provide accessible programs to all within the community, regardless of their economic situation. To facilitate this, many of our concerts are entry by donation. However, we strongly encourage those who can donate to do so generously to help support our commitment to paying performers following the Musicians Union of Australia and awards.

Currently, our major program is the EMERGING CONCERT ARTISTS SERIES, which features outstanding young performers under 26. The musicians are given the freedom to curate, present, and perform a program in multiple venues, which helps create a performance progression path for emerging artists. In some concerts, the emerging artists work with established performers; in others, they pair up together. Other concerts we run include the annual MUSIC FOR MEDICINE concert, which features emerging artists in performance with a leading Australian artist at Wollongong Town Hal, with all profits going to a charity committed to the health and well-being of those in need. We also run CONCERTS ACROSS THE LAWN: A Musical Experience in Nature. As young artists progress, we offer to help them set up concerts involving a paid entry in different locations.
