Event Details

Fresh from the successful release of her debut album Vertigo, Elodie Sablier's performance at The Basement brings together her exquisite piano composition and performance skills.

Having trained in France at the world-famous Conservatoires, Elodie Sablier is blessed with incredible technique and a sublime delicacy of touch. But after years of performing to those demanding standards, firmly ensconced in traditional musical forms, Sablier sought to find a more personal form of expression, and put a little more of herself into her music. 

The result is Vertigo, which sits comfortably alongside the likes of Einaudi, Glass and Nyman in its minimalism and its almost hypnotic repetition and looping. The lush, verdant landscapes of her native Provence have a strong presence here, but so too does Sablier's antipodean home, and her music exists in a sort of interstitial space between two very different worlds, which creates a sense of familiarity offset by an 'otherness' you can't quite put your finger on.

Elodie delivers an emotive honesty in her sound that pushes the boundaries of classical music in her own inimitable style. Elodie's album is a thing of great beauty, and the performance of this young talented composer promises to be nothing short of enchanting. 

Also performing will be pianist Andrew Hagger, whose ABC labelled album Moon Under Water has also just been released. The album, already charting in the Classical Crossover category, features ethereal piano solos, melodic guitar tracks and soulful orchestrations. Hagger's musical strength is drawn from classical training from the age of three, and life experiences working in over 40 countries. He played before a packed house at Bennetts Lane Club in Melbourne to launch the album last month. 

David Holmes completes the set. An accomplished guitarist, he has been described as a musical genius, performing on over 400 albums including three of his own. As Musical Director to Darlene Zschech, he has produced, written and performed on albums such asKiss of Heaven which attracted enormous success nationally and internationally.
