We visit Tanunda with our friends Mark Simeon Ferguson and his quartet to present a rollicking concert of string quartet classics, jazz standards and originals in the heart of the beautiful Barossa Valley.

Haydn meets Piaf in an evening of entertainment that transcends musical genres. Be moved by the beauty of Edith Piaf’s Hymne à l’amour, entranced by the charm of Mark Simeon Ferguson’s newest work for string quartet that captures the character of the iconic Hooded Plover, and bask in Haydn’s classical brilliance.

This is the opening concert of our newest bespoke festival experience, the Barossa Weekend of Music. This concert is included for all festival package holders.
