Jetsets, an artist-run series presenting boundary-pushing jazz and improvised music, invites you to celebrate the end of another year of creative performances with a special Christmas Extravaganza. The evening will feature two sets of adventurous music in the intimate, new home of The Living Room Theatre.

Special guest Anna Koch, Austrian bass clarinetist and contemporary music specialist, returns to Sydney following her appearance at last year’s Cut Paste Play Festival. She will perform her acclaimed solo and collaborative work, bringing her globally informed, improvisational sound to the stage.

Local favourites IBID Duo — Keyna Wilkins (piano/flute) and Shane Carpini (drums) — will also perform, blending stream-of-consciousness improvisation with original compositions inspired by philosophy, astronomy, and human behaviour.

Join us for an evening of improvisation, composition, and celebration, and toast to another year of bold musical creativity.
