Lord Mayor's City Hall Concerts - Riverside Guitar Ensemble

Lord Mayor's City Hall Concerts presents Riverside Guitar Ensemble.

The Riverside Guitar Ensemble is resident at the Queensland Conservatorium and brings together Queensland’s finest young professional guitarists with current guitar students from the Conservatorium guitar department. The ensemble is directed by Karin Schaupp and has performed extensively at festivals and concerts throughout South East Queensland and Northern NSW, and most recently they were invited to perform at the Adelaide Guitar Festival.

It is rare and challenging for a guitar ensemble of this size to perform unconducted, making it function much like a chamber orchestra and resulting in a very strong sense of communication amongst all members. Riverside continues to challenge the boundaries of repertoire for this unique ensemble combination. The ensemble’s premiere recording of Ginastera’s Dream by Brazilian composer Chrystian Dozza has been internationally released on Dozza’s new CD. The ensemble continues to premiere and commission new works, including works by young Brisbane composers.

This Lord Mayor's City Hall Concert is produced by Anje West.
