Charlotte Miles
Thursday 7 January
A solo cello takes centre stage at Port Phillip Estate as Charlotte Miles presents a recital exploring the instrument’s remarkable range. The Melbourne-born musician was the first Australian student at Germany’s prestigious Kronberg Academy and has performed with orchestras and chamber ensembles across Australia and Europe. Her program features the iconic Suite in E-flat major by Bach, alongside Ligeti’s Sonata, an incredible new work by Dr Lou Bennett: ‘kalkii’. Charlotte is an artist not to be missed in one of the Peninsula’s striking settings.
This outstanding event fuses exceptional music, landmark architecture, fine food, and wine.
