Painting Satie

With long years of experience behind them, Mary & Me is a partnership formed in friendship and the joy of music, which they love to share with their audiences.

For this concert they welcome artist Kerry Holland in a novel collaboration.
Eric Satie is renowned for his idiosyncratic music – especially his meditative,
spare piano pieces. So how about something equally odd – ‘painting’ his
cryptically named Trois Morceaux en forme de Poire (Three pieces in the shape
of a Pear). For this unique venture Brisbane artist Kerry Holland sets up her
easels in their performance space and paints the shapes and colours that are
inspired by what she hears, watched by you!

Included are other fascinating pieces by Robert Schumann,
Franz Schubert and Elena Kats-Chernin.
