"Sinuous melody, exotic textures, and wickedly funky sensibilities"
– The Sydney Morning Herald
STU HUNTER World Premiere

In a world weary and wounded, we yearn for beauty. 

Multi-award-winning Australian composer, producer and pianist Stu Hunter is a genre-defying musician and rising star of contemporary music.  

Hunter returns to the Festival (The Migration, Sydney Festival 2016) to premiere his brand-new work, the beautiful things, a solo piano feast of sumptuous melodies and pulsing rhythms. 

Filling the York Theatre with a breathtaking musical roller-coaster of driving grooves, the beautiful things is a reminder and reflection of the beauty in our lives in all its’ varied forms. 

Beauty has many faces and countless stories.

Beauty is as much in the eye of the storm as is in the eye of the beholder. 

Beauty is as subjective, as it is undeniable.
