As a musician’s instrumental proficiency develops, so too does their artistic taste and temperament. Each ANAM musician’s recital is a snapshot in time – simultaneously summarising their year of training and revealing glimpses of their future selves. What music excites them? What do they want to communicate? How does their art help them understand the world better? Hear what the next generation of virtuosi have to say, and how, in the 2025 ANAM Recital series.
In 2025 the ANAM Set is back. Musicians in their 3rd year of training present a specially commissioned work as part of their recital program.
Old and New
"My recital is a mixture of brand-new works and some of the oldest repertoire percussionists can claim. Throughwards a Foliage of Time and my own brass ensemble piece are world premieres, offering a stark contrast to Creston’s Marimba Concertino, which is credited as the first marimba concerto ever written." — Jamie Willson
