That Sunday afternoon ‘reunion’ in Galston Uniting Church will commence with an organ prelude from 1.30pm before the 2pm concert showcases piano, trumpet, strings and winds – a prizewinners young performers Galston Gala.

Leading the line-up will be multi-skilled local talent Jack Theakston, as cellist of the award-winning Piccolo String Quartet, and as organist, hosting the prelude, shared with another prizewinner, Bailey Yeates.

The Piccolos and the Bartholdy Piano Trio will perform as winners of The Galston Concerts Awards at Musica Viva Australia’s 2021 Strike A Chord national championships for secondary school ensembles.

Featured will be music by great Classical composers, Josef Haydn and Mendelssohn, who were themselves youthful super-talents.
