Event description
Formed in 2011, Sirius Chamber Ensemble is a mixed ensemble of winds, strings and piano. The ensemble performs music from the classical to contemporary periods in a friendly and accessible atmosphere and regularly features programmes of music showcasing the music of local composers. Recent collaborations include Blush Opera (Fancy Me Dead, Bondi Feast) and the album Flying with composer and saxophonist Spike Mason. The ensemble’s name resonates with the history of Sydney as it refers to the name of the flagship of the First Fleet, the H.M.S Sirius.
