Following its official reopening, the Stanthorpe Regional Art Gallery is set to host a captivating classical guitar recital by renowned musician Jesse Flowers.
The gallery, which has been closed for upgrades for several months, will be christened with the enchanting sounds of Flowers’ guitar.
Jesse Flowers, acclaimed for his ability to reveal the full potential of the classical guitar, has mesmerized audiences with his performances at prestigious venues such as the Wigmore Hall and the Musikverein in Vienna.
His international concert tours have taken him across Australia, Europe, China, and the USA.
Born in Sydney to an Australian-Singaporean father and a German mother, Flowers studied at the Australian National University under the guidance of Minh Le Hoang and Timothy Kain before relocating to Germany.
Throughout his musical journey, he was significantly influenced by the late composer Phillip Houghton, who served as a cherished mentor.
The recital program at the Stanthorpe Regional Art Gallery draws together works by seemingly disparate composers, all inspired by song and dance.
From gentle whispers to visceral percussive power, this performance promises to transport the audience through a range of emotions.
The event is on 9 August from 6.30 to 8.00pm. Tickets are priced at $40 and can be purchased at events.humanitix.com/jesse-flowers.
