Be enchanted

Suite mágica pairs the extraordinary combination of guitar and harp with a selection of works that display the energy, versatility and beauty of these much-loved instruments – delivered by two of Australia’s most captivating performers.

This instrumental pairing is at once both fresh and familiar. On stage, the instruments face each other like an enchanted reflection – with striking visual and aural similarities. The sound world created by these two plucked string instruments is not dissimilar to that of a guitar duo – the harp, with its 47 resonant strings and a collection of extended techniques, providing an expanded range of expressive possibilities to the more common two-guitar pairing.

Join Andrew and Emily as they share exciting new commissions by Australia’s leading composers, arrangements of popular favourites, and more.
