Indulge in the exhilarating experience of witnessing two virtuoso pianists captivate audiences at the grand pianos in a dazzling showdown.
“Two Grands…. Four Hands” promises an electrifying evening of musical mastery, featuring the extraordinary talents of Australia’s premier concert pianists, Elyane Laussade and William Schmidt. The performance is elevated with the enchanting vocals of International Soprano Alison Jones and narrated by the compelling voice of Chris McKenna.
Elyane Laussade, a globally acclaimed concert pianist, has graced stages worldwide and adorned the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra as a guest soloist. Hailing from the USA, she honed her craft at the prestigious Juilliard School of Music in New York.
In a serendipitous turn of events, Elyane played a pivotal role in discovering her co-star, William Schmidt, at an Eisteddfod 19 years ago. William has since showcased his musical prowess across Australia and performed recitals in the cultural hub of Vienna.
Together, this dynamic duo will present a diverse program that traverses musical landscapes, from the classical compositions of Mozart and Debussy to the timeless melodies of Mancini and Bacharach. Brace yourself for an extraordinary feat as they condense the entire Gilbert & Sullivan operas into a mesmerizing 90 seconds! “Two Grands…. Four Hands” guarantees an unforgettable fusion of virtuosity and entertainment.

Beethoven’s Emperor Piano Concerto – 2 June 2024 – Bendigo, VIC
Watch trailer on Facebook via this link: https://fb.watch/rJTEQz8Mj1
A spirited burst of energy from Strauss’s Radetzky March kicks off this rousing program, from which follows an extraordinary exploration of the relationship between music and power.
Finding himself in the life-endangering displeasure of Stalin after his bold and inaccessible opera – the ‘muddle instead of music’ – Shostakovich was scrambling to get back into political favour. His fifth symphony did the trick: its optimistic fanfare finale and simple, sing-able melodies apparently patriotic enough to satisfy the Soviet agenda.
Worlds away from the grit of Shostakovich, Beethoven’s beloved fifth piano concerto – ‘The Emperor’ – casts off the grim Soviet shadow. Not without its own political embroilment, ‘The Emperor’ was once dedicated to Beethoven’s hero Napoleon Bonaparte, before Beethoven famously struck his name from the manuscript in disgust after he assumed the position of emperor.
Bringing her dazzling touch to this joyous work is acclaimed concert pianist Elyane Laussade. Elyane returns after numerous successful performances with the BSO to continue her Beethoven residency. This is the second instalment in a very treasured collaboration which sees Elyane perform all of the Beethoven piano concertos with BSO.
Join us for this special celebration of warmth and light, and experience the many faces of heroism in this truly compelling concert.

Brahms Piano Quintet with The Partridge String Quartet
Dear Friends and Music Lovers,
Oh. My. Goodness. How many of you know the Brahms Piano Quintet? I mean, really know it? It is my all-time favourite chamber work! I revisited it yesterday with the Partridge String Quartet for the first time since I played it with the Flinders Quartet nearly twenty years ago! If you’d like to hear the opening emotive strains of this masterpiece, take a minute to listen now. I got hooked after hearing just the first phrase! You can click here to watch our rehearsal!
We were having our first rehearsal for our upcoming concert in Castlemaine (3 pm September 10 at the Anglican Church), when we realised there was good news for those of you who cannot attend our performance that day. After moving the piano around until we found the best spot to fit the quartet, we discovered that between all of our schedules, we have ONE DATE for a concert at the Laussade Studio -not the usual three, sorry – in under four weeks on Sunday, September 24.
After spending an afternoon making music together, I can understand why Mana, Jos, Eunyce, and Daniel are so successful: they are not just wonderful musicians, they are also great to work with. You can click here to read more about this exciting group.
Although our program features the piano quintet, before I join the quartet for the Brahms, they will play a rousing work called Seraphita by Trey Spruance. I think you’ll enjoy its freshness!
Come hear sublime masterpieces and enjoy an intimate soiree with great music and wonderful friends. As always, there will be a fabulous party afterward to which you are invited.
P.S. Since I can only offer one date, I suspect these limited tickets will go quickly. So, if you are interested in having a close encounter with these superb young musicians, don’t wait until the last minute to book your seats !
