Curiosity, fearlessness and versatility carry
Lina Andonovska’s artistry around the
globe, and she returns here to home soil
with a program that invokes a staggering
range of musical contrasts and demands on
the performer.
Andonovska is a rare breed in the flute world.
A name that you’ll discover on both the pages
of Rolling Stone and the Australian Chamber
Orchestra roster, she has not only cultivated
partnerships with leading composers including
Louis Andriessen, Thomas Adès and Bryce
Dessner (The National), but also deep
community ties from Timor Leste to Tokyo’s
incubator Wonder Site.
Here we reveal a solo voice surveying
the peaks of contemporary composition,
culminating with the world premiere of
Donnacha Dennehy’s Bridget: a work
commissioned by Andonovska based on
repetition, accumulation and manipulation
of layering inherent in the works of British
visual artist Bridget Riley.
