Andrea Keller - Solo Piano & Loops
One of Australia’s most outstanding pianists, Andrea Keller presents SOLO PIANO & LOOPS.
This is a unique and intimate recital. Limited to an audience of just 150, you will also be seated on stage very close to the performer. Performing music from her 2013 release Family Portraits, alongside other selections from her considerable body
of work, Keller presents a concert of original music and improvisations for solo piano and loop pedal.
An aural family tree, Family Portraits is dedicated to Keller’s ancestors and loved ones, capturing the love, humour and sadness of a small of a small and geographically disparate family.
“Coming from a migrant family meant that I grew up with a sense of envy and longing to feel more deeply embedded in life. I embarked on the Family Portraits project after my grandmother passed away in early 2010. I felt lucky to have finally met her in my adult life, and that we had sat together and written down what she knew of her ancestors. Her death however, triggered the mourning of another lost connection in our small chain, and a desire to salvage some memories for my children.”
