Jenolan Caves

Cello virtuoso Georg Mertens - Concerts in the Caves

20 Jul 2013

Drift and dream! Georg Mertens' haunting solo cello will immerse your senses in magical melody.

Relax to the sound of the cello drifting through the ancient Chamber, while you listen to music ranging from Bach to improvisations and compositions for the Cave, including The Swan, Meditation from Thais, Albeniz Asturias & Bach Suite No 3, plus Dideridoo & the Jenolan Ciaconna.  The Cathedral Chamber has arguably the best acoustics of any performance space in the world.

The concert will take between 2 to 2.5 hours. This includes getting to the Cathedral Chamber (several sets of steep stairs = 252 stair steps). The concert itself, and is followed by a brief tour of the rest of the Lucas cave. You can choose to do the brief tour (a further 658 steps) where you will see all the sections of the cave, in less time than the usual tour. Or if you wish to avoid most of the steps, you can leave the Lucas Cave the same way you entered, without taking the tour.
