Hugh and Juliarna first met at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music in the mid-1990s, fresh from school and brimming with passion for classical music. Thirty years later, that passion remains as strong as ever.

Every piece they perform has special meaning, with plenty of creativity, laughter and joy going into choosing and rehearsing each programme. Selecting the music is perhaps the hardest part, with so many beautiful works to choose from!

We love sharing this music and hope you do too. Details coming soon .. Save the date!
