Many Seasons of Jazz Violin

Experience an intimate night of music with Julian Ferraretto as part of the Wednesday Wonders series!

Join us for an unforgettable evening as Jazz Violinist, Julian Ferraretto presents an intimate rendition of his show, From Gypsy to Swing, which sold out when presented with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra.

This one-of-a-kind performance will take you through the many seasons of jazz violin, a captivating journey over a century from ragtime and swing, to South American grooves and jazz fusion.

Australian born Ferraretto moved to London in 2002 and has since become known for his virtuosic and melodically charged improvisational style. 

Now back in Australia, he continues to collaborate with musicians at home and abroad, through performance, string arranging and recording, and also spends time touring and on educational projects.

Enhance your evening with picnic boxes for a selection of treats, available for pre-order to pick up from the Noel Lothian Hall. 

Arrive early to meander under majestic trees and through the lush landscapes of Adelaide Botanic Garden while exploring the stunning Chihuly in the Botanic Garden for before the show.
