Private concert event for the ANZ Design team

  • This concert featured Opera Australia star Lorina Gore singing three accompanied arias. We also had Andrea Keller perform solo jazz piano.

Lorina was delightful. She was stunning to look at, and her voice was amazing. She engaged with the audience and broke down all barriers. The venue suited her absolutely. Her accompanist was extremely skilled and sympathetic to Lorina’s voice. They were an excellent duo. It was a privilege to have them perform for us. – Robin
