Sizzle was conceived by Ensemble Offspring as an alternative musical event for Sydney in winter - a way of getting contemporary classical music off the podium and into people's Sunday arvos. A relaxed and casual affair including food, drinks and a bowlo favourite, bingo, each afternoon is curated by an Ensemble Offspring member, reflecting their unique personal tastes and varied collaborative projects.

Curated by clarinettist Jason Noble, the first Sizzle kicks-off this Sunday at Waverley Bowlo featuring an 11-clarinet Steve Reich extravaganza, dancer Kip Gamblin, microtonal improv duo Clocks and Clouds, Matty Hoare's analogue electro-beat producing thwopper, an MC with a few tricks up his sleeve and of course, Ensemble Offspring.

Join us as we shed our concert blacks and share the stage with our friends to bring you 3 cross-genre events with a difference.
