House and Community Concerts

I have been passionate about music in the home and community all my life. I grew up in a home filled with music - every day amongst the family, and on regular occasions amongst friends. Then there were many, many actual concerts in the home - from our student and youth orchestra days to inviting seasoned professional colleagues to join us for fundraisers and so many other occasions. I have also played in community events, nursing homes, schools etc. from a young age.

 

The close contact with audiences is a very personal joy to me and I am fortunate o be able to share the experiences with music-lovers over a cuppa, and find out how the music moves and uplifts them and is often the "best medicine they had all year"!

​

My dream to run my own House Concert Series was first fulfilled through Blue Mountains Chamber Concerts, which I founded to run our Blackheath House Concert Series, a successful professional subscription series of 7 programs per year, 2 concerts per program, all sold out!

​

Then through the Lurline Chamber Orchestra I organised community-based concerts in Sydney, whilst also running the Bundeena House Concerts - also consistently a sell-out event!

​

I am currently involved in private house concert events which are mostly not publicly mentioned on this website. If you would like to host a concert in a home or community venue, please contact me directly to maria@marialindsay.com, in the box below or via my Contact Page.

I am able to provide classical recitals, salon-style concerts, chamber music, jazz and Latin, new and ambient music including my own nature-inspired compositions as well as contemporary singer/songwriter performances.
