In celebration of its 30th anniversary, the Australian String Quartet hosted a memorable evening of music under the banner, Remember Tomorrow – Great Southern Festival. The event took place on February 19th at the Albany Entertainment Centre in Western Australia and travellers planning to visit similar concerts such as this can consider staying at Albany motels such as Sundowner Albany, Amity which is within easy reach of the venue.

The two hour concert which began at 7.30 PM, took visitors on a trip down memory lane as the Australian String Quartet (ASQ) played Haydn’s Emperor quartet which was the piece performed at the very first public concert of the ASQ in 1985. While the concert also featured String Quartet No. 3 composed by Shostakovich, one of the highlights was the world premier of “Gallipoli”, a work by Australian Ross Edwards who created a special piece to mark the 100 year anniversary of the ANZAC landing in Gallipoli.
