Drive Live with Alexander Gavrylyuk
Australian-Ukrainian pianist Alexander Gavrylyuk joins Vanessa Hughes in the Eugene Goossens Hall on Drive Live.
He shares fond memories of growing up in countryside Ukraine, visiting his grandmother in the summer, and reflects on the sounds of the local folk music scene that were formative to his musicianship, alongside the strict practice routine that shaped him into the piano virtuoso that he is today.
Alexander is making his debut with the Australian Chamber Orchestra in a program of Gershwin & Shostakovich, touring around Australia now.
