Jazz

The Antripodean Ensemble is an ever-changing group of some of Australia's finest improvising musicians, whose aim is to explore improvised music from every angle and in every form. They seek to create situations that extend the comfort zones of each musician in order for them to explore new possibilities. Each configuration creates difference, sparks new dialogue and seeks out the collective spirit. The result is a unique music, unrepeatable, contingent and brilliantly alive.

After an extensive recruitment process spanning continents and skillsets far and wide, we are very pleased to announce the appointment of our new General Manager, Kristen Paterson.  

The Leaps and Bounds Music Festival will put the ‘live’ back in live music this winter, with an electrifying program of in-person gigs showcasing the artists, producers and local venues that make the City of Yarra Melbourne’s music capital.
The festival is set to delight live music lovers of all persuasions, with shows across 35 venues from the enduring dive bars of Fitzroy and Collingwood to the historic Abbotsford Convent; from town halls to record stores and everywhere in between.
