Every Friday in July celebrated Australian musicians will perform contemporary takes on acoustic piano in heritage Sydney locations Featuring Jim Moginie (Midnight Oil), Sophie Hutchings (popular pianist and composer), David Bridie (Not Drowning, Waving) and Chris Abrahams (The Necks). 

Piano+ Place is the brainchild of Jim Moginie, co-founder, song writer, guitarist and keyboardist for Midnight Oil, and art and heritage curator Ross Heathcote, in partnership with Piano+

Limited tickets are available and now on sale at pianoplus.com.au. Priced from $25 - $85, with a package available to buy all four performances in the series that includes a complimentary invitation to the opening night post-show celebration with Jim Moginie at the Anzac Memorial on Friday 5 July.

Each performance has been designed as a unique exploration of space and sound, and the venues chosen for their strong and singular spirit of place, including the Anzac Memorial in Hyde Park, Elizabeth Bay House, Paddington Town Hall and the State Library of NSW.

An Australian music legend, Jim Moginie said of the new launch, “Ross and I developed the concept with the aim of revealing a secret side of Sydney that takes celebrated artists out of their usual surrounds to historic Sydney spaces that aren’t usually accessed for music and that offer incredible musical inspiration through their spectacular acoustics. With Australian musicians playing in these famed Sydney spaces we share through the series both our fascination with this city while creating something magical for the artist and audiences.”
