Swing into SPRING with Ten Days
Ten Days, in partnership with Hobart’s Cultura Espresso Bar and Restaurant, is delighted to present
SPRING, the second in a series of seasonal dinner and concert events.
Ten Days Artistic Director David Malacari said SPRING follows on from the successful WINTER event and
would be held on Sunday, 31 August 2014 at 4.30pm for 5pm.
“SPRING is a celebration of the change of seasons, as we put away our winter coats and the days become
noticeably longer,” Mr Malacari said.
“To begin the night, guests will be swept away by an enchanting woodwind performance from the
University of Tasmania’s Conservatorium of Music TRIO 221 in Gallery Ten while enjoying a glass of
Tasmanian Jansz sparkling.
“TRIO 221 is an exceptional woodwind group featuring musicians Hamble Geary, Benjamin Pallagi and
Madeleine Randall. The trio will perform a musical set that will be a reflection on the season that is
Spring.
“Immediately following the concert, guests will be served a four-course Tasmanian spring-inspired menu
at Cultura, just a short stroll from Gallery Ten.”
Cultura Owner Luke Rocchia said the first event WINTER was such a success that he was thrilled to be
participating in SPRING.
“Ten Days is a fantastic Tasmanian brand and it’s great to see them partnering with Tasmanian producers,
artists and businesses to present such an exciting event,” Mr Rocchia said.
“Chefs Jay Marsh and Stuart Fulton will prepare a sumptuous menu of the best local seasonal produce,
including Tasmanian spring lamb and the finest scallops in the state.
“I don’t want to ruin the surprise, so all I will say about the dessert is that it will incorporate Tasmanian
apples, prepared in three alternative ways.
“The menu showcases the finest produce our fantastic state has to offer and guests will not be
disappointed.”
The seasonal events presented by Ten Days represent a new strategy to provide audiences with arts
experiences throughout the year, in addition to the acclaimed biennial festival.
Tickets are available for $125 per person, which includes a welcome glass of Tasmanian sparkling, the
four-course meal and a night of delightful music.
