Gershwin and More - Newcastle Music Festival

The great Simon Tedeschi needs no introduction to Australian audiences, as he has graced concert stages on piano for most of his life.

Joined by George Washingmachine on violin, Simon displays his musical versatility in an evening of jazz featuring the timeless music of George Gershwin.

Save the date! Tickets on sale in April.
