I’m thrilled to be finally hitting the road with VDB after years of working behind the scenes, and we’ve got a very important new instrument joining us; our brand new harpsichord by Titus Crijnen!

Come and check out the lovely Donald Nicolson playing this new instrument in some gorgeous concertos by none other than JS Bach.

The Muses Delight are performing a programme of stunning 18th-Century French repertoire, and I’m so excited to be joining them.

This year, I have the pleasure of performing Rameau’s stunning Concertos with Accademia Arcadia.

In this FREE concert directed by Stephen Grant, I’ll be leading an ensemble with soloists from the Early Voices of Melbourne University, in a concert featuring music by the great English composer Henry Purcell, including the Ode for St Cecilia’s Day entitled ‘Welcome to all the Pleasures’.

You can find all the details here.

UPDATE: Here we go again… It is with the deepest regret that we announce the cancellation of our upcoming Chelys Germanica concert in Beechworth on Sunday 6th June. We were so looking forward to getting back on stage, but with the uncertainty over the length of the current lockdown, it is impossible to proceed. We hope to reschedule for a later date, and will keep you posted. In the meantime, take care Victoria xxxxx

Please note, all audience members will need to check in to the event with the Service Victoria app. If you don’t have a smart device, our helpful front-of-house volunteers will be able to assist you.
