Acacia Quartet to Perform THE HARP & THE HARPOON at Music By The Sea

For Acacia's Music By The Sea concert 'The Harp & The Harpoon', they will perform Beethoven's famous 'Harp' String Quartet in Eb Op 74 (nicknamed for the arpeggiated pizzicato passages in the first movement) alongside two compositions that reflect Australia's unique landscape.

The first of these Australian works, 'Kudikynah Cave', is by Moya Henderson, one of Australia's most established composers with a career spanning four decades. This single movement work, with its beautiful and stirring harmonies, takes its name from a cave hidden along the banks of the Franklin River in the rainforests of Tasmania. It is typical of the strong sensory images Moya likes to create through her music.

The second Australian work is titled 'Law Of The Tongue' and is written by one of Australia's new generation composers, Nicholas Vines. Music By The Sea's audience will be hearing the world premiere performance of this intriguing work!
