Welcome to the Australian Viola da Gamba Society.Formed under the expert guidance of Patrice Connelly, the Society was incorporated on 23 June 2000. Since that time it has a proud record of achievement in serving the needs of players in Australia and New Zealand by holding workshops and producing a quarterly newsletter and an annual journal entitled 'Chelys Australis'. Isssue 7 is due out at Easter 2008. Our main activity is the annual 4 day Easter Viol School held at various locations around Australia. The next school will be held at the MLC School at Burwood, Sydney, New South Wales from 21 -24 March 2008. The Musical Director is Jenny Eriksson and the other tutors are Caroline Downer (Armidale) Louis Begin (Canada) and Shaun Ng (Perth). Louis Begin is a celebrated bow maker and we are delighted to announce that he will have some bows for trying out and purchase in Sydney. The brochure and enrolment form is available from this website. We supplement this major workshop with other workshops and we recently collaborated with Orpheus Music to hold a 6 day workshop in Armidale in association with the Early Chamber Music Summer School.
