Classical

Murilo began his musical journey in Brazil as a popular guitarist, primarily versed in MPB, Samba, and Bossa Nova styles. In 2003, he moved to Australia to further his career and pursue classical studies. He undertook formal training at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music under the guidance of Gregory Pikler, graduating with First Class Honours as a scholarship recipient.

A now Sydney-based artist, he has since performed extensively across Australia and internationally. Career highlights include featured appearances at major events such as the Sydney Festival and performances at renowned venues including the Sydney Opera House, City Recital Hall, and Sydney Town Hall. In 2018, he made his orchestral debut as a soloist with The Metropolitan Orchestra.

Beyond solo work, Murilo has collaborated with leading performing arts groups including the dance company Legs On The Wall, percussion ensemble TaikOz, and Musica Viva. His touring has taken him across the United States, Brazil, Europe, South Korea, and throughout regional Australia, covering five states and over 60 different cities.

A versatile and collaborative musician, Murilo is passionate about exploring diverse musical landscapes. His long-standing duo with saxophonist Nick Russoniello, Duo Histoire, remains one of his most rewarding and enduring creative partnerships.

Ticketing FAQs

  • All performances at The Church are free.

  • The Church is an intimate performance space and tickets are limited. Due to high demand, tickets will be issued at random to those who have entered each ticket ballot. Each performance has a separate ballot, so if you would like to attend multiple performances, you will need to enter each ballot separately.

    We advise you to listen to the artist you are entering the ballot for, and consider which shows you’d really like to attend. Entering more ballots does not increase your chances of attending.

    Please only enter our ballots with your own details - if we catch you using false details, you won’t have any luck. We reserve the right to cancel any tickets we believe are obtained through false information at any time.

  • If you are successful you will receive an email up to ten days prior to the performance with instructions on how to claim your tickets.

    This offer is only valid for a limited time. Unclaimed tickets may be forfeited. You will have the option of confirming up to two tickets for a performance.

  • No, your tickets will be valid for a specific performance only. If you are unable to attend, please pass the ticket onto a friend or contact us at tickets@phoenixcentralpark.com.au to allow someone else the opportunity to attend.
