Rubiks is one of Melbourne’s most dynamic contemporary art music ensembles, directed by Tamara Kohler (flutes) and Kaylie Melville (percussion).

Since debuting in 2015, Rubiks has been hailed as “a formidable contribution to Australia’s growing community of contemporary music makers” (Partial Durations) and commended for their “incredibly personal, strangely spiritual and ultimately deeply touching” performances (Limelight).

Rubiks reimagines classical music for the modern era by showcasing bold cross-disciplinary artistic collaborations, sharing untold stories and championing gender equity in the arts.

The ensemble has collaborated with Australian and international artists including Marcus Fjellström (SE), Amy Zhang (US), Kate Neal (AU), Ashis Sengupta (IN), Kinds of Kings (US), Short Black Opera (AU) and Matthew Shlomowitz (AU/UK). Rubiks’ international appearances have included performances in Germany, England, the Netherlands and at the closing events for the 2018-19 Australia Fest in India. National appearances include the Metropolis New Music Festival (Melbourne), City Recital Hall’s Extended Play Festival (Sydney), Canberra International Music Festival and the post-genre concert series Dots+Loops (Brisbane).

Music at McClelland is generously supported by Igor Zambelli, Mary-Jane Gething AO and The Robert Salzer Foundation. It is a seated event and is held in the Sarah and Baillieu Myer Education Pavilion.
