You are cordially invited to this wonderful fundraising concert which features the Young Steinway Artist and recipient of the 2014 Rising Star Scholarship from the Sydney Conservatorium -- Olivia Urbaniak.
Olivia is 16 years old and is one of Australia's new rising stars of the piano. She is also Polish and lives in Sydney.
Her wish is to perform at next year's Chopin International Piano Competition in Warsaw and she needs all the exposure and experience she can get to its leadup. Unfortunately she is too young for the Australian Competition, Canberra this year.
