Gwenno
Bait with live score
9.30pm
A Cornish fishing community struggles with the transformative effect of interloping holidaymakers... We're presenting Bait—shot in black and white on 16mm film—with a live score by Cornish-Welsh musician Gwenno Saunders, joined by Australian experimental musician Sia Ahmad.
The Necks
8.15pm
Think you’ve seen them before? No you haven’t. Australia’s favourite ‘artists-in-resonance’ return to mesmerise with their unique flavour of total improvisation.
Jay Jarome, Sabine Bester + The When Water Falls Ensemble
When Water Falls
7.15pm
A funky, soulful and uplifting song-cycle about water (with a side-order of visuals). Rain, rivers, floods: the power and potential of H2O are the stars of the show.
Prospectus Saxophone Quartet
Saxophone Special
6pm
Saxophone quartet led by ex-New Yorker Phillip Johnston—featuring Tasmanians Danny Healy, Spike Mason and Tristan Meffre—play a suite of tunes by Steve Lacy (originally released as Saxophone Special), plus a handful of other Lacy works and originals of Phillip’s own. Plenty of saxophone, plenty of special.
