SHEPPARTON will welcome some of Victoria’s brightest young musicians when the ITET Strings Celebration comes to Riverlinks, featuring 10 student string ensembles performing alongside their professional mentors.
The event opens with a full grand string orchestra before each quartet performs its own set, concluding with a special finale by the mentors, including Artistic Director John Noble and musicians from Melbourne’s Flinders Quartet.
Founded by John Noble, ITET provides high-level string chamber music training to regional and rural students through monthly mentoring supported by schools, communities, philanthropists and government partners.
“We are delighted to host the ITET Strings Celebration. Last year, this was hosted in Melbourne,” said Riverlinks Manager, Matthew Schroeders. “Seeing the 10 ensembles from across Victoria play on our stage, with their professional mentors is a joy and a privilege. We hope this event not only celebrates artistic excellence but also continues to enrich and uplift the next generation of string players.”
John Noble’s Quartet Program will present ITET Strings Celebration 2025 at Riverlinks Westside on Sunday, December 14, from 2pm.
Tickets are available online, in person, or via the Riverlinks Box Office on 03 5832 9511.
