VAN DIEMEN’S BAND & LUKE PLUMB | OCTOBER

With the current travel restrictions in place regarding interstate travel, and after much consideration, Van Diemen’s Band has made the decision to change our program for the October State-Wide Tour. This pivot has given us the chance to come up with a stunning cross-genre program featuring special guest Tasmanian Mandolin player Luke Plumb.
The Band gets back together for an October tour on home turf in a program spanning a thousand years, two hemispheres and a suitcase full of styles with the mandolin wizardry of Luke Plumb as a highlight.

Best-known for its world-beating performances of Baroque music, this time around VDB is also taking a stylistic tour through the sounds of Vivaldi’s Venice, traditional Jewish melodies, the ecstatic visions of medieval abbess Hildegard of Bingen, and popular folk dances.
