Australian Chamber Orchestra will bring four of eight national tours to UWA’s Winthrop Hall in 2026, after a year learning to love the venue during closure of Perth Concert Hall for renovations. Guest violin virtuoso Ilya Gringolts will direct the ensemble in March, sharing top billing with ACO principal Satu Vanska in “The Devil’s Violin” — a nod to Giuseppe Tartini’s Violin Sonata in G minor, aka “The Devil’s Trill”. Camera Icon Artistic director Richard Tognetti leads Australian Chamber Ochestra on tour. The Coriolan Overture opens the bill, followed by Tognetti, ACO cellist Timo-Veikko Valve and Russian-Australian pianist Konstantin Shamray in the lyrical Triple Concerto for Violin, Cello and Piano in C major. And as an afterglow, violinist Anthony Marwood directs the rising talents of ACO Collective across three December nights for the Sound & Sense Festival at Vasse Felix, in Margaret River.
