Phoenix Collective is a dynamic ensemble showcasing classical music with a uniquely Australian edge. Bringing together some of Australia’s most accomplished musicians, the exclusive Phoenix Collective Sunday Sessions will feature the work of award-winning contemporary and classical composers from Elvis Costello to Steve Reich, in the intimacy of the Zenith Theatre.
The legendary French electronic music duo, Daft Punk, is widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in dance music history. Hear the Phoenix Collective reinterpret their iconic beats through the lens of a string quartet as Daft Punk’s synths, drum machines and vintage vocoders are translated into violin, viola and cello.
