Known for her expressive depth and brilliant technique — as well as her warm presence on ABC’s The Piano — Andrea Lam brings Mozart’s beloved Piano Concerto No 21 to life with elegance and joy.

Mendelssohn’s sun-drenched Italian Symphony also shines, along with the premiere of a moving new work by Miriama Young, created from field recordings by young people in climate-affected communities.

With students from the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music joining the orchestra, this concert celebrates connection — to land, music and the next generation.
