The Viney-Grinberg Duo traces a path from Parisian salons to the Australian landscape, opening with Chaminade's charming 6 Pièces romantiques before traversing Poulenc's witty and nostalgic Sonata for Piano 4 Hands. The program culminates in two Australian classics: Carl Vine's virtuosic solo Sonata for Piano (perf. Viney) and Sculthorpe's wistful Left Bank Waltz, offering audiences a captivating blend of French elegance and distinctive Australian voices.
