Grigoryan Brothers

Saturday 30 April, 4.30pm | Rehearsal Room

“Guitar playing of uncommon originality and authority. Musicality, expressivity and daring.” – The New York Times

Slava and Leonard Grigoryan have achieved dizzying heights of success, both in Australia and abroad. The ACO presents these virtuoso brothers together, up close and in recital, in the Pier 2/3 Rehearsal Room, a strikingly intimate performance space that features a spectacular backdrop of the Harbour Bridge.

Featuring a world premiere from Cuban composer and classical guitarist Leo Brouwer alongside music by Handel, Enrique Granados and Slava and Leonard themselves, this recital is currently the only opportunity to see these brothers perform together in Sydney this year.
