Experience the musical brilliance of Joseph Tawadros in Woodend this September long weekend.


Prepare to be enchanted as this world-renowned oud virtuoso fills the intimate setting of St Ambrose Church with his mesmerising music on Saturday, September 28, from 1pm to 2pm.


Renowned for his masterful blending of Arabic, jazz, and classical influences, Tawadros has captivated audiences worldwide.

An eight-time ARIA Award winner and Member of the Order of Australia, his music is a testament to his unparalleled artistry.

From thrilling and furiously-paced numbers to beautifully introspective and tranquil compositions, it is woven together by Joseph’s trademark lyricism and the striking contemporary musicality of his oud.


Immerse yourself in the intimate atmosphere of St Ambrose Church as Tawadros weaves a sonic tapestry of emotion and virtuosity.


The Woodend Winter Arts Festival committee is thrilled to have Joseph perform in Woodend, right before he heads off to the USA with the Australian Chamber Orchestra.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience the magic of his music up close. This concert is expected to sell out, book early to avoid disappointment at woodendwinterartsfestival.org.au
