Event description

Silo Sounds Inc. presents: Brooklyn from Behind the Piano: A New York Soundtrack, with Emma Stephenson

Celebrate an evening of original songs, Christmas and classic hits peppered with stories and reflections from piano-bar entertainer and songwriter Emma Stephenson. Shaped by her experiences residing and performing in New York city, Emma's style sits somewhere at the intersection of Tom Waits, Carole King and Diana Krall. Delight in an after-supper of mulled wine, boutique wine from FREEMAN Vineyards, dessert treats, tea and coffee in the heated church hall. Everyone is encouraged to bring blankets, electric candles and dress for a ‘snowy‘ Christmas event. Emmas's co star will be the beautiful new SX6 Yamaha grand piano which now resides in the Ross Memorial Church.

SILO SOUNDS is a vibrant collective of elite musicians and passionate local music enthusiasts residing in Harden Murrumburrah. Our vision is to bring world-class chamber music to our small rural community, enriching lives through the transformative power of music. We are dedicated to fostering a sense of belonging and cultural vibrancy in our town by delivering exceptional classical music recitals and workshops that engage people of all ages. In 2025 we will present 4 classical chamber music recitals and 6 community classical music mentoring events

Since our inception in 2022, we have successfully created a thriving cultural hub that combines musical excellence with community outreach. Our achievements include presenting 12 world-class chamber music concerts and organizing 17 community workshops, which have been attended by over 1,400 participants in a town with a population of just 2,000. These events have directly contributed to a rejuvenated interest in music education, evidenced by the public school band program’s growth from six to 35 children.

Through our Community Classical Music Mentoring Programme, we have enriched the lives of both youth and elders by introducing them to classical instruments, fostering self-expression, and promoting a sense of community well-being. Our dedication extends beyond performances; we actively engage with schools, provide hands-on experiences with classical instruments, and support local musicians and students through mentorship.

Our events are held in the historic Ross Memorial Uniting Church, a venue whose ambiance is elevated by the addition of a newly donated Yamaha S6X recital piano. This exquisite setting allows us to attract world-class soloists and ensembles, while our dedicated team of volunteers ensures each event delivers a high-caliber experience for both performers and attendees. Despite the challenges of limited funding, our organization continues to thrive, driven by our commitment to sustaining the cultural and emotional fabric of Harden Murrumburrah.

Our enthusiastic team and local committee make these events possible and are dedicated to delivering top-tier recital experiences.
