Classical musician Ben Opie has revealed the line-up for the 112th Peninsula Summer Music festival in 2019.
Opie took on the role of Artistic Director for the 2019 event on Mornington Peninsula, Victoria.
The 2019 event brings in new venues at Peninsula Hot Springs, Whistlewood Gallery and the first festival performance at the Coombe Yarra Valley winery in Coldstream.
Opie’s Inventi Ensemble will perform as part of the event. The 2019 event will also cater for kids. On 3 January, Cruden Farm opens the farm gates for a world of adventure for young children aged 6+ with Ad Lib Collective artists’, Thea Rossen and Jesse Deane, taking them on a water filled sensory experience in the drip, drop, play. The following day, Balnarring’s St Mark’s Anglican Church plays host to Kids Carnival, an afternoon of singing, percussion instruments, dancing, games and instrument making with Clare Zabrowarny, Inventi Ensemble and Ad Lib Collective.
