14.01.2022 Grevillea Quartet would like to thank the wonderful audience in Young who joined us yesterday in our concert at St Johns Anglican Church! We had a wonderful time in Young and we were touched by the warmth from our audience. Below is from an audience member after she heard us perform in Young: Thank you so much. I really enjoyed your concert. It brings back memories of my mum playing Beethoven on the piano, especially Pathetique. - Masa

11.01.2022 Like many of our colleagues in recent times, Grevillea Quartet has been away from the concert venues, and we miss everyone dearly. We hope this short clip brings you comfort during this difficult time. Please support your local musicians as many of them have lost their source of income for an indefinite period of time. Stay safe and hopefully we would see our wonderful audience again soon!

09.01.2022 We were absolutely awestruck by the overwhelming support from our audience at the Wesley Music Centre last night! The enthusiasm for chamber music was exceedingly high, and we were so sad to have to turn away people as the concert hall was well and truly packed. We would like to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts, and we will certainly release our future events soon. Stay tuned! Photo credit: Peter Hislop Violin 1: Rebecca Emily Lovett...

03.01.2022 There is no doubt it's been a most unusual year for everybody. Like many musicians, Grevillea Quartet has been unable to play for our beloved audience for months, and we spent the downtime to think about what music means to us, what music means to you, and what music means to humanity. As the venues begin to reopen again, we are keen to bring back live chamber music to our audience. Hopefully we'll be seeing everyone in concerts very soon. Watch this space! #GrevilleaQuartet #chambermusic #stringquartet #canberra #musicians
