Combining four of Melbourne’s most versatile and in demand musicians, prog-baroque quartet Croissants & Whiskey brings a new energy to old instruments. An unconventional blend of Harpsichord, G Violone, Baroque Viola, and Recorders creates new and unexpected timbres, blending the sonorous with the sharp, and making the old new again. Performing both baroque and modern compositions, Croissants & Whiskey is currently writing its own original music, and commissioning new works from diverse Australian voices, including a recent recording of Elizabeth Younan’s The Fertile Crescent for the ABC Composer Commissioning Fund.
“Spanning nearly 400 years of music, this debut concert by Croissants and Whiskey heralds a new era in composition for the Baroque quartet.” ✭✭✭✭✭ Limelight Magazine
