'Words are Weapons' featuring the Sydney Art Quartet.
Location: Thomas Brown Gallery, 568 Speargrass Flat Road, Lake Hayes, Queenstown.
Region: Queenstown
Dates: Sat, 21 March 2020 @ 5pm - 7pm
WORDS ARE WEAPONS featuring the Sydney Art Quartet.
A gripping combination of classical music, murder & great literature featuring a dramatic retelling of Tolstoy’s The Kreutzer Sonata and a spine chilling performance of music by Janáček, Schubert & Haydn. This is a rare combination of words and music in the superb acoustics of the Thomas Brown Gallery.
Describing a crime of passion, The Kreutzer Sonata was instantly banned in both Russia & the USA and Tolstoy branded a sexual moral pervert by President Theodore Roosevelt.
Words are Weapons is a concert created by the Sydney Art Quartet, a dynamic group of Australian musicians known for their electrifying and refreshing performances that embrace multiple art forms and senses.
Words are Weapons was previously staged in Australia in sell-out concerts with David Wenham (Lion, Seachange, 300 and Pirates of the Caribbean) and in Queenstown will feature a soon to be announced distinguished actor. With only one concert announced, tickets will be highly held!
