Featuring works by some of Australia’s most beloved and internationally recognised composers including Elena Kats-Chernin AO, Yitzhak Yedid, Arthur Benjamin, Larry Sitsky, and Guy Gross, this intimate recital weaves together rich musical narratives, exploring themes of identity, memory, and heritage through the expressive voices of piano and clarinet.
