Jane Austen: Set to Music
About
Jane Austen wrote several poems. In this light-hearted concert we present some contemporary musical settings of her poems, including the Australian premiere of a new song cycle by UK composer Chris Gardner that reimagines a selection of Austen’s verse in a variety of musical idioms – even sultry Latin rhythms and the blues - and Gillian Dooley's 'Six Miniatures', settings of Austen's juvenilia verses. This is an event not to be missed!(Note: This is a repeat of the sold-out Vivente Music event at Urrbrae House on 27 April this year).
Jointly presented by Tabor College and the SA Chapter of the Musicological Society of Australia.
The venue is the Institute of Music, Tabor College Millswood Campus, 181 Goodwood Road.
From the city: Bus stop 6 is directly outside Tabor College, on the G10 or G20 bus route.
To find the Institute of Music, enter via the Orphanage Park entry, off Mitchell street. Free parking.
Wheelchair access. Light refreshments will be available.
