Woodend Winter Arts Festival presents
Gerswhin and more: Simon Tedeschi and George Washingmachine
Extraordinary concert pianist, Simon Tedeschi, is one of Australia’s best-loved classical musicians, performing everything from Mozart and Chopin to Debussy and Prokofiev for orchestras, festivals, and venues around the world, from Sydney Opera House to Carnegie Hall. With a long-harboured love of jazz, and three celebrated albums of Gershwin’s music to his name, tonight Tedeschi teams up with jazz vocalist and violinist, Georgie Washingmachine, for something a little different – Gershwin favourites and classic jazz standards by Cole Porter, Oscar Peterson, Fats Waller and more.
