Andrew Blanch is one of Australia’s most sought after guitarists. Andrew has appeared in recital throughout Australia and on tour in the USA. His recordings are regularly broadcast on ABC Classic FM, and he has collaborated with leading Australian musicians, including Daniel Rojas, Emily Grainger and Karin Schaupp.
“Andrew Blanch is that truly rare musician, who combines profound musical intelligence, curiosity and passion with a technique that allows anything. A complete artist.” (Howard Penny, Head of Strings at ANAM, Member of the Chamber Orchestra of Europe).

The Gully Line String Quartet comprises three of Newcastle’s rising string stars, under the direction of acclaimed violinist, conductor, composer and educator David Banney. With a repertoire that ranges from the 17th century to the present, the quartet has delighted audiences with the beauty of its sound and energy of its performances.
“David Banney is simply one of the best conductors in the country” (Roger Woodward, pianist)
