Then music in the courtyard with Lyrebird Brass playing from the balcony above. Again not optimal for recording or viewing and the chatter was constant but the sound was glorious - rounded, billowing, insistent - and the music was more melodic with lovely harmonies that sat so fat and satisfyingly. They played six pieces over two shorter sets, I think all by Australian composers, including one world premiere. I guess they come with the territory. The feel was bellowing and confident and melodic and easy to love. One of my faves.
Lyrebird Brass are Joel Brennan and Rosie Turner (trumpet), Carla Blackwood (horn), Dan Immel (trombone) and Alex Jeantou (tuba). LB performed at NFSA for MOSSO during CIMF2026.
