Camerata & Brendan Joyce: Schumann
Due to the weather events of Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred, Camerata has made the difficult but necessary decision to reschedule their Camerata & Brendan Joyce: Schumann concert this Wednesday evening at The Empire in Toowoomba to this Saturday, 15 March at 7pm.
All ticketholders will automatically be moved to the Saturday performance date. If you are unable to attend, please call The Empire Ticket Office on 1300 655 299 to receive a refund.
Presented by Camerata

#A truly exciting way to start the year!
Share in the joy, passion, and love of music with Camerata’s virtuosic opening 2025 concert, featuring Camerata’s very own Artistic Director and leader Brendan Joyce on solo violin for Schumann’s Violin Concerto.
In this concert, Camerata will also “get the band back together”, welcoming our wind, brass, and percussion sections for this spectacular and sublime program of rarely heard musical gems.
With no conductor in sight and a stage full of fine Queensland-based musicians, experience the thrill of 40 musicians uniting as one. From Fanny Mendelssohn’s sparkling concert overture, Schumann’s tender and rarely heard Violin Concerto, and Poulenc’s light and charming Sinfonietta, this concert will be a joy from beginning to end.
As always, join Camerata in the foyer after the concert to meet the musicians and have a chat.
