ELEVATE THE STAGE 2024

Flutist Jane Rutter in a special performance with flutist/composer The Emerald Ruby and pianist John Foreman OAM. This year’s ‘Elevate the Stage’ concert will once again be held at Sydney’s ICC in Darling Harbour. The celebration concert is in honor of the United Nations’ International Day of People with Disability. The concert is expected to be broadcast on ABC TV on December 3.

ABOUT THE RUBY EMERALD: Imbued with the ethereal textures of folk music, ornate instrumentals, and bardic storytelling, the sonic pallet of multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and ABC Classic commissioned composer The Emerald Ruby share’s musical milieu with Sufjan Stevens, Joanna Newsom and Missy Higgins. Whimsical in nature, her gentle songs are juxtaposed by dark undertones cultivated in the chaos of late-diagnosed neurodivergence.

A kaleidoscope of influences nourish every performance from this multi-genre powerhouse; The hazy virtuosity of 18th-century French flute music, chaotic abstractions of a moonlit jazz jam, and trading traditional jigs and reels at a folk session are drenched with a mood only decades of musical adventures along Australia’s east coast can inscribe.
