Prepare to be kissed by a fairy, haunted by a dream and transformed by music when Canadian virtuoso violinist Leila Josefowicz and fellow-Canadian pianist John Novacek bring their fantastical tales and captivating sounds to tour Australia. Josefowicz and Novacek have been playing together since they were eight, and their enduring partnership creates a bond on stage which is, quite simply, magic. Let this feisty duo transform your night with ravishing music by Stravinsky, Szymanowski and Debussy, plus a new commission from Ivor Novello Award-winning UK composer Charlotte Bray.

‘Leila Josefowicz is just the right kind of violinist: tough, uncompromising, always ready to do battle with the band and to soar, exhilaratingly, above it.’ — BBC Radio 3
