CLASSICAL ENCOUNTERS
13 & 14 September 2025
What a brilliant weekend!
Superb music played by the best musicians Australia has to offer. Beautiful Spring weather enhanced the experience and an appreciative audience made the most of the weekend wih many spending the day at the farm combining music and picnic lunch.
The rich program featured works for piano, strings and wind ensembles. One of the many highlights was a performance of Beethoven's Archduke Piano Trio.

A musical journey in Gloucester
The idea for the Craven Creek Music Festival started when we bought our piece of Gloucester paradise, 'Kingfisher'. The old barn on the farm had a stage that was crying out to be used.
In 2013 the first concert was held on a beautiful September afternoon to a packed audience. The response to the concert encouraged us to make it an annual springtime event hence the formation of the Craven Creek Music Association Inc., a not-for-profit registered charitable organisation.
Your support has encouraged us to continue the concert series which has continued to grow in popularity and scale. We are however very aware that one of the unique and wonderful aspects of the concerts is the intimacy and rustic charm of the venue. That will not change.
We are excited to be able to bring you some amazing performers who will fill the barn with great music in 2025.
