The Voyage of Musical Discovery series was established and designed by the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra and its founding artistic director and world-renowned educator, the late Richard Gill.

The final Voyage of Musical Discovery reveals the multiple identities of composer, character and performer and the links between them.

The Voyage begins by uncovering some of the unusual effects that populate Mozart’s Don Giovanni and his Jupiter Symphony with a mixture of musical and dramatic identities.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, percussion instruments have taken on a more prominent role in ensemble repertoire. Taikoz demonstrates how the expressive scope and musical energy of today’s performers and composers grow from surprising combinations of identities, times, places, styles and sounds.
