Arabella Steinbacher performs Georges Lentz's Violin Concerto
Ideal for Stage 5 & 6
Arabella Steinbacher is one of the world’s most in-demand violinists, and a stellar performer arriving to premiere a concerto by composer and Sydney Symphony musician Georges Lentz.
Part luminous meditation, part dark diabolical jig creating an elegy for our grandchildren’s planet, this is a concerto that requires true virtuosity.
This resource relates to the Australian Music: Music of the Past 25 Years element of the NSW curriculum.
