PROGRAM
J.S. BACH (arr. D Sitkovetsky): Goldberg Variations
ARTISTS
Violin - Zoë Black
Viola - Christopher Moore
Cello - Molly Kadarauch
Zoë Black is an acclaimed Australian violinist renowned for emotional intensity, virtuosity and rhythmic vitality. A versatile soloist, chamber musician and director, she was Associate Concertmaster of the Australian Chamber Orchestra and has appeared as Guest Concertmaster with the Melbourne, Adelaide and Queensland Symphony Orchestras. She co-founded Imaginista Quartet and is on faculty at the Australian National Academy of Music
Christopher Moore has spent a lifetime persuading audiences that the viola really is the most interesting instrument in the orchestra. After ten years as Principal Viola of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, he joined the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra as Principal Viola in 2015. An enthusiastic chamber musician, teacher and occasional theremin player, Christopher treasures making music with close friends, but is happiest sharing the stage with his partner, violinist Zoë Black. Whether performing a beloved masterpiece, a forgotten curiosity or something brand new, he believes that great performances should combine imagination, warmth and a healthy sense of humour and that violists deserve far more jokes in which they emerge victorious. After all, those jokes can all be transposed up a fifth and down an octave.
Molly Kadarauch is one of Australia’s leading cellists. A former Associate Principal of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, she co-founded Melbourne’s Sutherland Trio, touring nationally and broadcasting on ABC Classic FM and 3MBS. She has performed at festivals including Huntington, Port Fairy, Peninsula and Adelaide, and appeared as guest Principal cellist with major orchestras across both Australia and New Zealand.
