To celebrate Make Music Day 2019, a string quartet of musicians from the Australian Chamber Orchestra will perform a special free pop-up concert at the Entrance Court of the Art Gallery of New South Wales on Friday 21 June from 1pm.

Audiences are invited to see the quartet perform a preview of the ACO’s upcoming‘Indies & Idols’ tour, which features mesmerising, cinematic music composed by some of today’s greatest indie-rock icons: Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood, The National’s Bryce Dessner and singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens.

Launched in France in 1982, Make Music Day is a global festival of creating, sharing and enjoying music around the world and is now held on the same day in more than 800 cities across the globe, including Sydney.
