For one night only in November, Glebe’s beautiful restaurant Beckett’s will be transformed by classical music. In honour of his 80th birthday, one of Australia’s best known and most performed composers, Ross Edwards, will be joined by some of his favourite musicians such as Soprano, Susannah Lowergren and Pianist, Bernadette Harvey in a live classical music birthday tribute. Classical Music enthusiasts are invited to join in these celebrations which is guaranteed to be an unmissable night.
To complement this musical affair, French Executive Chef Julien Ombredane (QT Sydney, Intercontinental Marseille) who heads up the new Euro-duo culinary team at Beckett’s alongside new Italian Restaurant Manager Philipp Tengler (Mode Kitchen & Bar, a’Mare, Black Bar & Grill and Flying Fish at the Star), will create a three-course tasting menu to savour alongside perfectly paired wines.
This celebration of one of Australia’s greatest Classical Music composers will be hosted by owner and famed Playwright Director, Wendy Beckett. Held in the large restaurant upstairs and reminiscent of Sardis in New York – picture stone walls graced with photographs of famous artists and playwrights and enveloping floating green velvet curtains.
Beckett’s continues its unwavering commitment to celebrating culture and providing a welcoming space where a community of food lovers, creative thinkers, arts champions, authors, professionals, future thinkers, night owls and friends can congregate. Proud to have the opportunity to support and celebrate all creatives, Wendy says, “it’s really about bringing people together in a relaxed and intimate setting.”
