This summer, the Mornington Peninsula will once again be filled with the sounds of world-class
music, accompanied by the best food and wine that the region has to offer.
Under the artistic direction of Julia Fredersdorff, the 9-day festival offers something for everyone, with 19 events in Red Hill, Mt Eliza, Moorooduc, Rosebud and Flinders, performed by over 80 musicians from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, France, Argentina and the UK. Journey from the exotic sounds of the Middle East to the tango-imbued Buenos Aires of Astor Piazzolla, from jazz’s Great American Songbook to the emotional torment of Dowland’s Renaissance London, from Telemann’s Paris of the 18th century to the 21st century Australia of Elena Kats-Chernin.
