Rachel Ireland-Meyers celebrates the natural and figurative worlds by creating daring, yet graceful landscapes, rich and bold in colour, imbued with imagination and soul. Each artwork is intuitive in that it emerges not out of any preconceived idea, but rather through the unique process of spontaneously layering free flowing colour and raw markings with carefully represented forms. Each artwork is a celebration of the present moment and Rachel finds great satisfaction and joy in allowing her paintings to emerge naturally and organically as she experiments with colour.

25. Metal that Moves - Works by Contemporary Tasmanian Artist Blacksmiths 2013 Presented by the Tasmanian Artist Blacksmith Association Incorporated. There’s not much call for horse shoes any more or agricultural implements. The rail yards have become museums and tool factories have all mechanised. Blacksmiths have evolved with the times. The principles, the basic tools and techniques, haven’t changed in centuries. At the heart of the medium is fire. Forges are used to heat steel to a plastic state before it is physically shaped “forged” by hammer and hand tools over an anvil. Combine this with innovations in metal cut/weld fabrication technology as well as industrial machinery and the result is a burgeoning art form.

8. Australian String Quartet Like parents showing off a new child to their extended family the Australian String Quartet makes a welcome return to Hobart to introduce two new faces and a new phase in its musical development. New first violinist Kristian Winther is already familiar to the Musica Viva family, having performed with the TinAlley String Quartet in 2007, while violist Stephen King will be making his first appearance in the Musica Viva Tasmania series. Their performance features another first – Debussy’s first, and only, string quartet. In common with many of the greatest works in the repertoire its first performance by the Ysaye Quartet was not without controversy. Despite its four movements and uniquely for Debussy, its key designation, the work is a watershed in chamber music history, marking an end to the strict form and language of earlier Classical and Romantic string quartets and opening the way to a new, freer interpretation of the idiom.

Buddy 'n' Roy - Together 'n' Alone, Hobart From the producers of Buddy: The Concert, Johnny Cash: The Concert and The Class of 59, come and take a stroll down memory lane into the heady days of the fabulous 50s and the swinging 60s when Happy Days Records presents Buddy ‘n’ Roy: Together ‘n’ Alone featuring the music of never-to-be-forgotten rock ‘n’ roll idols Roy Orbison and Buddy Holly. Quite simply, the story of Roy Orbison could not be told without Buddy Holly. Both native Texans, Orbison grew up in the towns of Vernon, Fort Worth and Wink whilst Holly was born and bred in the nearby town of Lubbock. Having performed at the same local venues and shopped at the same guitar shops, the pair also wrote and recorded at the same New Mexico studios – Norman Petty Studios – which would go on to impact the future of music. The majority of Buddy’s noteworthy recordings were crafted within those studio walls, and after his tragic 1959 death, Norman Petty was tasked with adding instrumentation and production to many unfinished Holly tracks.
