nipaluna/Hobart Lunchbox Concert Autumn #5: Karina Schmitz & Simon Martyn-Ellis

Curated by VDB’s Artistic Director, Julia Fredersdorff, Van Diemen's Band's hugely popular Lunchbox Concert Series showcases some of lutruwita/Tasmania's finest musical talent, alongside interstate and international guests, in an eclectic program of music spanning a rich variety of genres and styles. 

Escape the hustle and bustle and step into an oasis of calm listening to beautiful music in the glorious surrounds of the Hobart Town Hall Ballroom.

Tuesday 13 May - Karina Schmitz & Simon Martyn-Ellis
Two of the shyer Baroque instruments - the Baroque viola and the theorbo - step out from their usual place in the middle of the Band to let the deliciously dusky sounds of their instruments take the spotlight. This sumptuous program of duos and solos features VDB's 2025 Mentors-in-Residence Karina Schmitz (viola) and Simon Martyn-Ellis (theorbo).
