Just as ferries bring communities together across the Redlands Bay, music becomes the vessel through which stories are shared. In this concert series, opera leaves the grand theatre and comes to the Redlands Bay. Renowned in Victoria for bring top level artistry to the tiniest rural towns, Opera in the Country tours for the first time in Queensland to present a five intimate classical music concerts across the picturesque Stradbroke, Coochiemudlo, Russell and Macleay islands. From Bizet's Carmen and Schubert's Shepherd on the Rock, to works by Australian icons Margaret Sutherland and Miriam Hyde. Each work has journeyed far before arriving here on the shores of our islands, to bring us together for an afternoon of joy and beauty. Free pre-concert music workshops for kids and post-show chats with the musicians promise a fun and fulfilling day out for everyone. (No booking required for the kids work music workshops, which will run for 45 minutes, starting 1.5 hours before each concert.)
