INTRODUCING THE SOUTHERN CROSS SOLOISTSAn internationally successful ensemble based in Brisbane, the Southern Cross Soloists have helped set the benchmark for Australian chamber music since 1995. The Soloists have earned a well-deserved reputation for artistic excellence and continue to surprise and delight audiences with their constantly evolving repertoire and ever-changing annual programs.

An ensemble of individually talented and collectively powerful musicians, the Soloists come together to create something special and very much ‘in the moment’ each time they perform. The informal, ‘up-close-and-personal’ performance style perfected by the Soloists creates an intimate, inviting and deeply engaging experience.

Company in residence at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre for five years, the Soloists enjoy a busy schedule of national performances, while continuing to develop Australian chamber music talent through the award-winning Winter Music School regional education program. Their international touring has taken the ensemble through the Asia-Pacific and into North America.

Added to the Soloists’ annual program of flagship events – including the esteemed Bangalow Music Festival – the ensemble seeks to incorporate new and innovative work every season. Special guest musicians, unique cross-art form collaborations and a fluid repertoire are key elements in the Soloists’ perpetually fresh and inventive programs.

Despite the ensemble’s considerable success and critical acclaim, the Soloists approach each performance as a unique opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting impression on the people that matter – audience members. Captivating audiences with music that is truly alive, the Soloists deliver exciting, enriching and uplifting performances that never disappoint.

Personal. Intimate. Inviting.

MESSAGE FROM HER EXCELLENCY MS QUENTIN BRYCE AC ACOGovernor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia

As Patron of the Southern Cross Soloists, I have witnessed the ensemble’s impressive artistic growth and dynamic evolution across the years. As an audience member, I have experienced first-hand the Soloist’s transfixing performance style and uniquely engaging delivery. It is from both these perspectives that I am once again looking forward to another stellar season.

The Soloists have succeeded in striking a consistent and careful balance between broad audience appeal and artistic excellence. It is this ability to respond and adapt, while stretching and extending their musical abilities, that keeps the ensemble at the forefront of their craft and a perennial favourite among loyal subscribers and new audiences alike.

Our Soloists are a much-love local talent in their home state, Queensland, an equally lauded fixture on the national stage, and a highly-regarded international export. In this latter role, they continue to put the spotlight firmly on Australian chamber music and the depth and breadth of our country’s significiant creative capabilities.

The ensemble’s commitment to promoting an inventive classical and contemporary repertoise at home and abroad makes it a valuable and worthy ambassador of chamber music in all its forms. For this ongoing contribution – to the art, and to their audiences – I thank the Soloists.

I invite you to show our appreciation for their considerable efforts and enormous talent in 2014.

OUR JOURNEYLeaving Brisbane in 1988 to live in the big smoke of London, I was sad that it wasn’t possible to have it all. That is, to live in a beautiful place like Brisbane but still be able to experience daily the vibrant, inspiring arts scene of a European capital city. Little did I know that this would be completely possible – if I just waited 20 years or so!

No need to live in a dingy London flat eating tomato soup just so I could hear a jaw-dropping virtuoso or feel the thrill of experiencing cutting-edge, world-class performers.

Brisbane has not only grown up but is bursting at the seams with arts and live performance. As a musician this makes it one heck of a great place to live!

This is our vision for the Southern Cross Soloists: to offer world-class chamber music in the heart of Brisbane, bringing excellence to our city, state and country. But in true Aussie fashion, we do it ‘our way’ and in true SxS signature style.

Fresh, innovative programmes, larrikin banter with the audience, captivating audiences with up-close and personal performances in first-class venues with exhilarating guest soloists – that’s what sets us apart. It’s the X factor, chamber-music style.

In 2014 expect to share more of this thrilling journey with us. From our annual pilgrimage to the Bangalow Festival to the intimate setting of our concert series at QPAC, there will be something for everyone, delivered in a relaxed, inviting style.

We present Bangalow favourites this time at QPAC, including international guest soloists: tenor Alexander Lewis and violin virtuoso Ilya Konovalov. James Crabb will charm as ‘pied piper meets classical accordion’, and actors from the Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble will delight with their deliciously naughty commentary by Shakespeare on the human condition called ‘love’.

New friendships will be formed with Southern Cross Soloists appearing for the first time with Expressions Dance Company on stage in Natalie Weir’s new ballet, The Red Shoes in July, while young aspiring musicians from all over Queensland will descend on Rockhampton to start taking a journey of their own at the Southern Cross Soloists Winter Music School. We will also be touring with concerts in Redlands, Sydney and Toowoomba, plus Bangalow and the Northern NSW region.

So as I look out my window to sunny and fun-loving Brisbane, I am appreciative that we can live in the most beautiful city in the world and have exciting music and arts at our fingertips. Some of you (our audience) have been coming to our performances for nearly 20 years, while others came for the first time in 2013 and were immediately hooked…

Whether you are friends old or new, I look forward to seeing you in 2014!

‘KISS ME, KATHARINA’Works influenced by Shakespeare’s comedies exploring the art of seduction, including the famously witty love-hate relationship between Katharina and Petruchio in the Taming of the Shrew. A sharp-tongued and quick-tempered independent woman and a boisterous scoundrel out to marry into wealth… the more they fight, the more they belong together.

Enjoy the sublime voice of Australian tenor Alexander Lewis as he joins Southern Cross Soloists in a delightful afternoon of music combined with the tongue-in-cheek wit of the greatest of comic writers, William Shakespeare.
