Elizabeth Woolnough
Elizabeth joined the Australian Chamber Orchestra in 2019.
The ACO was, Elizabeth says, the orchestra she listened to as a kid, and she still finds it ‘mind-blowing’ to be a part of it. She was a member of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra from 2017–2018, but she prefers playing in the smaller ensemble, because it allows for more spontaneity in performance, and means that every player has to be on their game at all times. Elizabeth plays her own viola, a 1968 instrument made by the Parisian luthier Pierre Audinot.

Together Apart
Together Apart is a collection of original chamber music compositions by Sydney-based composer and UTS lecturer Brent Keogh. Written during the Covid-19 lockdown, the pieces reflect the tensions of that time but also hope for renewal.
