Great news! The next Concerteenies concert is on a Tuesday – 8 May 2018! Actually, more importantly, it will be played by Carol Wang on the bassoon. She’s a thrilling classical player with lots of tricks up her sleeve.

Thanks to Noella Yan (and Alex Waite on piano) for two great performances this week at The Concerteenies.
We’re so pleased with the turnout and if you came along and wanted to know more about her, read on below.
You could also visit her website here. Or check her out on instagram @worldofellabella. Thanks again!
Melbourne-based Singapore cellist, Noella’s playing has been recognised for her ‘expressive sound’ (The Straits Times) and of ‘exceptional talent and innate musicality, one with superb technique and interpretation.’ (Sina.com.cn)
Born in Singapore, Noella began learning the piano at age 3 and started the cello at 12. She was accepted into the Purcell School at 13. Noella has been a scholarship recipient of both Lee and Shaw Foundations, NAC Gifted Young Musician’s Award, prizewinner of the Audi Young Musician and the Lesley Alexander Prize for outstanding performance at the Royal College of Music, UK. Her teachers include her father Yan Yin Wing, Herminia Ilano, Pal Banda, Joyce Rathbone, Alexander Boyarsky and Erling Blöndal Bengtsson.
Subsequently a John P. Miller fellow at the University of Michigan, Noella received a Double Masters in Performance and Chamber Music and was also awarded the Gustavé Rosseels Chamber Award and appointed cellist of the university’s resident Rosseels Quartet.
The Concerteenies is proud to present Noella Yan, an extraordinary classical and crossover cellist, on two dates – Wednesday 28 February and Friday 2 March, both at Kindred Studios, 3 Harris Street (next to Yarraville Gardens), Yarraville, in the Bar & Function Space.

We also recorded – again by Ben’s wonky hand – the amazing finale to the concert and will put a link up to the video soon.
A great big thank you to all the parents and keepers (and children) who came to our very first recital today.
It was great to see children connecting with the music and lots of people making friends.
We’ll be putting details for the next concert on Wednesday 13 December – this time a jazz-based recital – very soon.
We can’t wait to do it again.
