A message from our Patron –
Dame Elisabeth Murdoch AC DBE
On the 17th July 2002 Dame Elisabeth Murdoch launched the Chamber Music Australia Patrons’ Circle, a group of dedicated donors who each year commit financial support to ensure the growth and development of chamber music and chamber musicians in Australia.
“Chamber music is very dear to my heart and I continue to be enthused and inspired by the talented young artists and ensembles who flourish through Chamber Music Australia’s work.
“The Patrons’ Circle is something I am immensely proud to lead, launch and support. I encourage you to join the Patrons’ Circle and help lead the way for the development of chamber music and young musicians in Australia.
“Your patronage will make a clear statement about the talented young people we value, admire and are committed to supporting.
“I look forward to welcoming you to our circle of patrons”
