Tuesday 6 June - NEW LINEUP Katie Yap & Charlie McCarthy

Due to illness the originally scheduled world premiere of Night Herons has been postponed and Emily Sheppard will not be performing in this Lunchbox Concert.

However, as the saying goes, the show must go on .... we're delighted that Ireland-born, nipaluna/Hobart-based violin/viola player Charlie McCarthy has risen to the occasion and will be joining forces with Katie Yap for the concert.

Katie and Charlie will play a heart-warming concert of violin and viola duos - ranging from Alice Chance's reimagining of Hildegard von Bingen, to pastoral Englishman Frank Bridge's exquisite Lament for two violas, plus a selection of witty ditties and folk tunes from around the globe.
