2027 Concert Season

ADVANCE ANNOUNCEMENT

In 2027 Musica Viva Australia presents Lea Desandre’s Australian recital debut, performing French love songs from the Baroque to now alongside Thomas Dunford. 

Mezzo-soprano Lea Desandre, named Opera Singer of the Year at the Opus Klassik awards, is one of the brightest talents of her generation. Lutenist Thomas Dunford, her partner in life and music, is the inspiring artistic director of Ensemble Jupiter. Together, they are taking the world of classical music by storm. 

Please note this concert is part of the Musica Viva Australia 2027 Subscription Season, and current renewing subscribers have priority booking. 

If you are a Gold Subscriber, your seats are already reserved. You can confirm your Musica Viva Australia subscription from 26 August, when we announce the rest of the 2027 Season. 

As we are presenting this tour in partnership with Opera Australia, you may see it advertised as part of their 2027 program before our season officially launches on 26 August.

There's nothing you need to do now; just contact the Box Office if you have any questions on 1800 688 482 (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm AET) or by email boxoffice@musicaviva.com.au
