Artistic Director/pianist Kathryn Selby Is joined by Australia’s illustrious Goldner String Quartet, in their farewell season, in a program rich with meaning – extraordinary works by Mozart, Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich make for a stunning program of favourites performed by world-renowned artists and friends.
