Emanuel Ensemble®

Formed in 1988, the Emanuel Ensemble has been delighting audiences for over three decades with their unique brand of friendly enjoyable music making, presenting concerts of chamber music for mixed ensemble of wind, strings and keyboard, played by Perth’s finest musicians.

Jewels of the French Baroque

This concert explores the unique sound world of French Baroque chamber music, featuring some of the loveliest jewels in the eighteenth-century repertoire. Drawing on elements of traditional dance forms and popular songs, these exquisite pieces are a perfect blend of elegance and expressiveness, reflecting the brilliant and elegant court of King Louis XV, “le Bien- Aimé” (“the Well-Beloved”).

Artists are Emily Gunson (flute & recorders), John Hardy (harpsichord), and Michael Goldschlager (cello), renowned soloist and former member of the Macquarie Trio, who plays a genuine eighteenth-century cello, made in Paris in 1780.

Admission is $39, $34 concessions & seniors. Seating is limited, so advance booking is recommended. Bookings should be made by phone, with payment by credit card, internet banking, or cheque / postal order. Door sales will be available on the day unless sold out.
