My Place is an album release concert in the Goethe Lounge series from 6-8pm
Crux Duo – Lloyd Van’t Hoff clarinet, Lisa Moore piano and voice
My Place is a new album (ABC Classic) that brings together original Australian and American music, including six world premiere recordings – new works, composed and arranged for Crux Duo. Join Crux for their album release concert performing music by Elena Kats-Chernin, Anne Cawrse, Harriet Steinke, Martin Bresnick, Erik Griswold, Nick Russoniello, and Leonard Bernstein. The music illuminates a personal sense of belonging. Having lived “away from home” for various extended periods in both their lives, Lisa and Lloyd share a unique kinship and plurality of vision – through a mutual need to find a home in unfamiliar places.
Following their triumphant collaboration at the 2023 Sydney Festival, the multifaceted keyboardist and vocalist Lisa Moore and virtuoso clarinetist Lloyd Van’t Hoff joined forces and formed Crux Duo – a musical project exploring, arranging, and presenting recent and new commissioned works alongside traditional and modern classics. This cross-continental Australian-born duo perform diverse and powerful programs in both the USA and Australia – bringing audiences music ranging from acoustic chamber works and songs, to mixed media compositions with backing tracks and visual projections – in addition to collaborations with guest artists.
