A MESSAGE FROM SKYE MCINTOSH

The last 18 months for AHE have been amazing - we recorded our next ABC Orchestral CD at the end of 2021, (which is going to be released soon) and celebrated our 10-year anniversary in 2022, presenting many exciting projects including our Haydn's Times of Day marathon at the Adelaide Festival, our incredible Haydn's Creation at the Canberra Festival and in Sydney, Beethoven's Eroica, Haydn

Speaks with John Bell and the re-launch of our Education program with our Australian Haydn Spring Academy finished off with a fantastic CPE Bach program with Chad Kelly, broadcast by the ABC.

I’m incredibly proud of what AHE has achieved and become over the past 10 years, and so grateful for your support. The everincreasing quality of every performance is a dream come true. I am constantly amazed at the deep level of commitment from each and every specialist musician; they give their all every time they take the stage.

With each concert, workshop, recording or broadcast, I feel even more excited about the future and what we are aspiring to achieve in the next 10 years.

With your help, we do so much - and there's more excitement on the way!

This October we plan to tour the United States for the first time, performing at the opening of the new US Embassy in Washington DC and also at Carnegie Hall, and of course, we will continue touring all our other beautiful concerts back here at home throughout the year.

We do need your help to achieve all of this!

As the end of the financial year approaches, I invite you to support AHE with a taxdeductible donation.

Your contribution makes all the difference to me, to our musicians and to our audiences everywhere.

I do hope you will consider contributing.

Skye McIntosh
