International pianist and Associate Professor of Music – Piano and Head of Keyboard at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music, Jerry Wong presents Darkness and Delight, a captivating journey through the contrasting worlds of the piano.

From the brooding depths of Liszt and Australian composer Miriam Hyde and the luminous joy of Beethoven to the introspective clarity of Bach, this recital explores music's power to move between shadow and light. With artistry, insight and expressive flair, Jerry Wong reveals the piano as both confessional and celebration – a mirror of the full range of human emotion.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
