Join ABC Classic presenter Genevieve Lang for a special live recording of everyone’s favourite radio show – Music Class!
With the support of Australian Youth Orchestra musicians and special guests, including Dr Anita Collins, Genevieve guides an hour of lively exploration, revealing both beloved favourites and fresh discoveries for wind quintet. This summit session is set to delight, inspire curiosity, and spark joyful learning—just like any great music class.
Genevieve Lang is well known to Australian audiences as a harpist and broadcaster. You might well have seen her on stage with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, and she’s enjoyed a long association with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra. She’s also a founding member of SHE (Seven Harp Ensemble) and has performed as soloist with several orchestras around the country and overseas.
A few years ago, Genevieve became interested in writing and speaking about music and the world of music administration. Since then, she’s taken on education projects for Musica Viva, given pre-concert talks to audiences in Sydney and Hobart, led tours for Hayllar Music Tours, and worked with Pinchgut Opera, Gondwana Choirs and the Australian Youth Orchestra.
These days you’re more likely to hear her voice than her harp, as a presenter on ABC Classic. And she occasionally pops up on your television screens for special classical music events on ABC TV and ABC iView. For Genevieve, broadcasting and media are the perfect way to share her passion for classical music with the biggest possible audience!
