25.01.2022 Dear friends of the Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival, I hope you are all holding up well in these uncertain times. At this stage, we are still looking forward to bringing divine chamber music to the picturesque northern Tasmanian midlands in October 2020.... The health and wellbeing of our friends and our community is our number one priority and as such we will continue to monitor the situation closely, and will keep you informed accordingly. You can also stay-up-to-date with plans for this years Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival by liking our Facebook and Instagram pages. Id like to reassure those who have already purchased tickets will be eligible for refunds in the worst case scenario, however we are optimistic about the festival going ahead as planned. While physically attending any concerts in the near future may be impossible, thankfully there are a number of terrific initiatives stepping up to fill the void. Brilliant music is one of lifes best antidotes Id encourage you to check out the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestras Daily Dose via the link below to get your fill. https://www.tso.com.au/tso-daily-dose/ Please look after yourselves, stay well and keep your spirits high. Kind regards Allanah Dopson

21.01.2022 Cheers to 2020! Tasmania is very lucky to be home to some of the worlds finest sparkling grapes. We think @josefchromys end product is the perfect accompaniment to world-class chamber music as well.

19.01.2022 The northern Tasmanian midlands is home to many spectacular historic buildings such as Longfords Christ Church. Were so grateful to be able to show them off!

18.01.2022 The contrast between Orava Quartets thrilling intensity and the calming beauty of Hagleys St. Marys Church was simply spell-binding.

14.01.2022 One of the most loved aspects of the Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival is the opportunity for audience members to engage with the artists. Thanks to Orava Quartet for sharing some of the secrets behind your talent!

07.01.2022 Bravo Umberto! Umberto Clerici never fails to delight and his Suite Cubed compilation at last months festival was no exception.

06.01.2022 the Festival is a celebration of all things Tasmanian as well as the music there is outstanding food and wine, beautiful spring gardens and a great variety of heritage venues, including churches, barns, and the Georgian magnificence of Clarendon House. Thank you Jo St. Leon for the wonderful review of the 2019 Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival your opening paragraph sums up the experience the festival offers perfectly. You can read Jos full review for Limelight Magazine via the link below.

06.01.2022 Longfords Christ Church illuminated by candlelight at the 2018 Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival. We cant wait to return to this stunning venue when @VanDiemensBand perform in October.

05.01.2022 A feature event of our 2019 program, the Mozart merry-go-round will be a musical tour like no other, featuring three stunning Mozart recitals performed by three tremendous groups in an historic barn, a beautiful ballroom and one of Tasmanias most charming churches. We like to think Wolfgang Amadeus would enjoy our merry-go-round more than the one here.

05.01.2022 Thanks Limelight Magazine for the wonderful story about our Mozart merry-go-round, set to be a highlight of this years Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival. Were counting down the days until the first note is played later this month!

04.01.2022 Mountford Estates grand ballroom was a fitting setting for two of Australias grandest classical artists Daniel de Borah and Greta Bradman.

03.01.2022 The basset horn is a sometimes-misunderstood instrument, which was almost lost to the annals of history. Thankfully, Mozart was one of the instruments biggest advocates, saving it from extinction. We are excited to bring you the Trio di Bassetto (Chris Waller, Andrew Seymour and Robert Schubert) as part of the Mozart merry-go-round musical tour at the 2019 Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival.

02.01.2022 Spring has sprung and what a time to be alive. Aside from the warming weather and beautiful flowers, the start of spring also signals that the Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival is just around the corner. See you on the last weekend of October!

02.01.2022 Back by popular demand! @Umbertocellos performance at the 2018 festival was simply spell-binding so much so that we couldnt pass up the opportunity to have him back again this year. We are all looking forward to witnessing this cello master in action again!

02.01.2022 Hailed by Limelight Magazine as the most exciting young talent on the block, we cant wait for Orava Quartet to bring their breathtaking brand of music to the 2019 festival with one of Australias most celebrated sopranos @GretaBradman.

02.01.2022 Its encouraging to see restrictions beginning to ease in Tasmania, and we are still optimistic about bringing you divine music in the northern midlands this October. The health and safety of all involved will always take precedence, and we will continue to monitor the situation as it develops with the view to making a final decision on July 1. Until then, keep your spirits high, and make the most of this downtime to discover and enjoy the arts online.... It certainly helps soothe the soul!

01.01.2022 Visiting beautiful Georgian Evandale really is like taking a step back in time. If you couldnt make it to this years festival do yourself a favour and put Evandale in your itineraries for later. (Photo credit @Trust Magazine)

01.01.2022 The Tasmanian Chamber Music Festival shares the northern Tasmanian midlands with many wonderful animals. Were pretty sure these sheep are fans of Baaa-ch. #pun #sorry
