The Awkwardstra was established in 2014 as an eclectic group — it began with a couple of violins, a viola, a saxophone, a harp, cellos, and even a harmonica — and has settled into a strings and woodwind chamber group. Driven by the enthusiasm of maestro Daemon Clark, this beginner-intermediate level group is always welcoming of new players, and regularly braves public performances busking at markets or performing for family and friends.
Favourite pieces currently are Bach Suite no 2 in D, Jenkins' Palladio, Tchaikovsky's Trepak and Handel's Arrival of the Queen of Sheba.
