Described as “impressive” (NY Times), Australian flautist Rosie Gallagher was born with an undeniable love of music. Her flute playing has taken her around the world to perform on stages including Carnegie Hall, Royal Albert Hall, and the Sydney Opera House, as well as bringing classical music into less conventional spaces including correctional facilities, healthcare facilities and public high schools.

Rosie has given pre-concert talks for both the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Carnegie Hall. In 2023, alongside Lee Dionne, Rosie converted an empty shopfront in Sydney into Hayes Street Studio, a music venue that presents intimate concerts of chamber music featuring Australian and international artists. She collaborates with musicians including Lee Dionne, Anna da Silva Chen, Annie Jacobs-Perkins and Chris Pidcock.

Rosie is indebted to the many teachers and mentors who have inspired and guided her. She received a BM from The Juilliard School and an MM from The Royal Academy of Music.

Pianist Lee Dionne is known internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, having performed numerous debuts in venues such as Carnegie Hall, the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, Jordan Hall, and Spivey Hall.

Within Sydney, Lee has been presented by organisations including the Australian Chamber Orchestra, Piano+, Musica Viva, the Sydney Writers’ Festival, Opus Now, and ABC Classic. As an artistic director, Lee is passionate about crafting vibrant programs that connect with audiences through their diversity of style and compositional voice, as well as their virtuosity, emotional intensity, and sense of play. Lee has collaborated widely not only with musicians, but also with directors Eugene Lynch, Jon Levin, and Emma Jaster, dancer Caroline Copeland, puppeteers Eric and Shoshana Bass, and filmmakers Ben Ryan and Chris Kitchen. He has curated and contributed music to events hosted by the Yale Art Gallery, Sydney Writers' Festival, and Person Place Thing Podcast with Randy Cohen.

He is currently an associate lecturer in piano, collaborative piano, and chamber music at the Sydney Conservatorium.
