The repertoire: Taverner’s Akhmatova Songs and Sculthorpe's From Ubirr and Schoenberg's 2nd String Quartet is generally performed to a small, knowing audience. The aim of the performance was to evoke a poetic response to a solstice ritual through complex classical music, and disseminate this to a much broader audience than is customary for such repertoire.
