Our suite of Music Productions include:

• SWING - The Beat That Shook The World!
• TAKE FIVE - The Dave Brubeck Story

BRENDAN FITZGERALD QUARTET recreates the world of iconic jazz musician Dave Brubeck, his genius, his relationships, his humanity and popular acclaim. In 1959, Dave Brubeck Quartet’s album, "Time Out" became the first platinum jazz album, while "Take Five" remains the highest-selling instrumental recording of all time. Together with "Blue Rondo a la Turk", these works are identified as seminal and revolutionary expressions of a new era in music. 

Brendan narrates Brubeck’s story at the piano together with a projected montage of images from his life and times. He also channels Jimmy Lyons, a jazz radio presenter who helped launch Dave’s career. Peter Raidel, accomplished alto saxophonist, plays the elegant musical lines of Paul Desmond, Brubeck’s creative ally and sometime adversary.

eMotion Music pays respect to the Ngadjuri first nations people of mid-north South Australia, on whose land we are privileged to carry out our artistic endeavours. "Jimbura" relates to a Ngadjuri word meaning "red ochre", which is abundant in the area.

Due to having to some unexpected local planning permissions, we are currently addressing certain technical issues to satisfy these requirements. In the interim, we are operating as a music recording and rehearsal space and visual arts studio, as a stepping stone to our expanded arts centre concept.

eMotion Music will launch JIMBURA, as a dedicated music, cabaret, theatre and visual art space at Spalding, 178 kms north of Adelaide (38 kms north of Clare) during Adelaide Fringe 2024. Artists are invited to submit expressions of interest to stage music, theatre or cabaret productions or visual art exhibitions in our regional Fringe hub, February/March, 2024. Applications should be submitted by 15th October, 2023.
