W. A. Mozarteum presents

"Mozart and Friends on Mothers Day"

3 pm Sunday 12 May 2024

St Cuthbert's Church
Darlington Road (cnr Hillsden Rd), Darlington

Celebrate Mothers Day with the magical music of "Mozart and Friends."

This enjoyable Sunday afternoon concert will feature four delightful classical quartets for flute and string trio, by Wolfganf Amadeus Mozart, one of the best loved of all composers, complemented by works by three of his friends - Johann Christian Bach (1735-1782), Friedrich Hartmann Graf (1727-1795) and Franz Ignaz Danzi (1763-1826), performed by members of the W. A. Mozarteum.

The venue is the iconic St Cuthbert's Anglican Church, on Darlington Road (corner of Hillsden Road),  Darlington. This pretty little stone church is situated amongst a grove of fragrant eucalyptus trees in the Perth Hills. Built in 1924, the church's serene interior features decorative stained-glass windows with scenes from the life of Saint Cuthbert, and the church's warm resonant acoustic makes it the perfect setting for this programme of classical chamber music.

Artists are flautist Emily Gunson, with leading musicians from the West Australian Symphony Orchestra -  principal second violin Zak Rowntree, principal viola Daniel Schmitt, and associate principal cello Isaac Davis.

Don't miss this truly wonderful way to celebrate Mothers Day in the Perth Hills!
