Aura Go

Aura Go is quickly emerging as one of Australia’s foremost young musicians. She has been soloist with the Melbourne and Adelaide Symphony Orchestras, performed at the Melbourne International Arts Festival, the MSO Metropolis Series and the Edinburgh Festival. Her interest in new music has seen her give the first Australian performances of the 1st and 2nd Piano Concertos of Rautavaara, a performance of the Schnittke Concerto for Piano and Strings, the Gubaidulina Concerto, as well the works of many Australian composers.  Aura was the winner of the 5th Yamaha Piano Competition and the Hephzibah Menuhin Memorial Award, and was a national keyboard finalist in the ABC Young Performers Awards in 2002, 2003 and 2006. In 2009, Aura was the recipient of four special prizes at the Lev Vlassenko Piano Competition.  Aura completed her undergraduate studies at the Victorian College of the Arts. She then studied at the Australian National Academy of Music with Ian Munro and Michael Kieran Harvey. She is currently completing postgraduate studies at Yale University, studying with Peter Frankl.
