Mostly Mozart 2026 Is Here — And It’s Magnificent
|
Hi Reader, It’s Angie here, a new and inspired contributor for Seniors in Melbourne. Have you ever visited the Melbourne Recital Centre? The recent Mostly Mozart concert was my first experience there — and what a delightful introduction it was. One of the joys of reaching “Seniors status” is embracing more first-time experiences, and this one included morning tea, beautiful music, and discovering ANAM — the Australian National Academy of Music, where young musicians refine their craft. The concert began with a spirited La Marseillaise for four hands, followed by two dreamy sonatas, each performed with such harmony and joy. The final performance, Piano Concerto No. 25 in C Major, with ANAM’s Artistic Director Paavali Jumppanen on piano, was an absolute highlight. The morning was a wonderful celebration of music, talent and atmosphere — an experience I’ll be remembering for a long time. It's worth checking out their 2026 program which has just launched. Warmly,

Hello Reader, It's Terrie here. When I heard from Seniors in Melbourne that there was a guided tour of St Albans Market as part of the Victorian Seniors Festival, I jumped at the chance. I actually grew up in St Albans but hadn’t been back for over 25 years — so it felt like the perfect opportunity for a nostalgic day out. I caught the train up from Geelong and couldn’t help but smile thinking of my teenage self sprinting for the train to my first city job. Of course, the old boom gates and...
