Arundo Reed Quintet
www.myspace.com/arundoreedquintet
The first group of its kind in Australia, Arundo gains its inspiration from the Dutch “Calefax Reed Quintet”, a group formed some 20 years ago.
The repertoire draws from the old and new, ranging from William Byrd’s music of the 1500s right up until John Polglase’s “Moon Over the Day (2006). All Arundo’s pieces have been especially composed or arranged for this unique combination of instruments.
Arundo’s name is derived from a type of cane, arundo donax which is used to make reeds for all the instruments in their group.
The players are drawn from Perth’s finest reed instrumentalists.

Comfortable performing in many genres, Philip has played at New York’s Carnegie Hall, Berlin’s Philharmonie with the Schoenberg Ensemble, Fremantle’s Flag ‘n’ Whistle with his funk band, and pretty much anything in between. After several years overseas, he is now back in Perth enjoying the city’s vibrant new venues and opportunities. Philip will be presenting a program of fun, funky and fresh music for bass clarinet and electronics… serious repertoire with a grin on its face…
I.S.Q. – Imperial String Quartet
ISQ is the sexy, sophisticated and edgy manifestation of the classical Imperial String Quartet.
Entitled ISQ, the all-female line up of two violins, viola and cello are the ‘rock’ side of the Imperial String Quartet. The addition of a percussionist adds a new dimension to their sound.
Each member of ISQ has been classically trained, but has also vast experience working in recording studios, live in concert with rock bands, and appearing on television and radio.
The repertoire they perform is not the usual String Quartet fodder: from Radiohead to The Beatles, Michael Jackson to Cole Porter, the girls’ repertoire is unique and written specifically for them.
ISQ brings the wonderful balance and tone of a string quartet to some of the greatest contemporary songs, making them a unique and exciting group you’ll be glad you heard.
Joe Black Trio
Joe Black Trio began performing their fusion of gypsy jazz and world folk-rock in mid-2010 and recently released their self-titled EP. The band has performed at The Ellington Jazz Club, Nannup Music Festival, KULCHA and Fremantle Arts Centre and can be spotted at semi-regular gigs in Fremantle and Subiaco.
Band members Julia Watson (violin), Ellen Paynter (double bass) and Holly Norman (percussion/vocals) met through the Western Australian classical music scene and nowadays the group's sound mixes shredding violin and sultry vocals with deep dark bass and explosive percussion. All tunes in the band's repertoire have been arranged by the group and live performances always include new improvisations over the gypsy-caravan-esque musical material.
Q Brass Quintet
Q was formed in 2010 out of friendship and a desire to combine the classical and Jazz genres in a traditional brass quintet format.
