Sally Walker (Flute) at Carrickalinga Beach in South Australia.
Following 456 1:1 Concerts and raising close to $25,000 for out of work musicians, the Australian 1:1 Concerts Team is taking a break. Although our arts industry will need significant time to build up from the impact of the pandemic, the musical landscape in Australia has fortunately changed positively, with 1:1 volunteer musicians now engaged again to paid concerts, venues back to commercial bookings and previously out of work hosts becoming employed again.
THANK YOU for your support of 1:1 Concerts.

Listener’s feedback:
From the moment the host met me till the end, it was profound. I’d read all the information but was still unprepared for what an intense and amazing experience it was.
A joint study between Griffith University and the Australian National University will explore the impact that these concerts have had and determine whether future Australian concerts should be a social project, a festival project or both.
