Dear Camilla - Australian Tour Announced

Pianist Jennifer Hou and violinist Patrick Galvin are set to tour Australia with their acclaimed program Dear Camilla, bringing the heartfelt story behind their celebrated album to live audiences.

Born from a deeply personal tribute to Patrick’s mentor, the legendary violinist Camilla Wicks, Dear Camilla explores connection, memory, and musical legacy through both storytelling and performance.

“On Dear Camilla, violinist Patrick Galvin pays tribute to his former teacher … Galvin and pianist Jennifer Hou navigate works by Sibelius, Chopin, de Sarasate, Chausson, Pärt, and Beach with aplomb in a meaningful tip of the hat to an educator whose influence changed a life.”
Navona Records

In concert, Jennifer and Patrick interweave spoken reflections with exquisite performances of the works featured on the album. Each event offers audiences an intimate experience that celebrates mentorship, artistry, and the shared emotional dialogue between violin and piano.
