Joyeux Anniversaire

Selby & Friends' 2025 Season begins in tribute to the great French composer Ravel for the 150th anniversary of his birth in 2025 with his atmospheric piano trio along with two famous trios of subtle maturity and soaring passion by two vastly different Austrian masters in the Classical Mozart and the Romantic Alexander Zemlinsky.

This program also sees a reunion of two childhood friends to Selby & Friends with the stunning and charismatic violinist Daniel Dodds and Australian cellist Julian Smiles who join Artistic Director and Pianist Kathryn Selby for a soaring season opener.
