Willkommen auf dem Youtube-Kanal des Enoggera Ensembles! Das Enoggera Ensemble besteht aus vier führenden Musikern aus Brisbane, die die reiche koloniale Musikgeschichte von Queensland auf kraftvolle und dynamische Weise zum Leben erwecken. Banjo-, Mandolinen- und Gitarrenclubs waren von den 1880er bis zu den 1930er Jahren der letzte Schrei, und diese neue Inkarnation erfreut sich daran, die faszinierende Geschichte und die Klänge dieses Phänomens durch fesselnde Live-Auftritte zu vermitteln. Das Enoggera-Ensemble besteht aus Marissa Carroll (Mandoline), Joel Woods (Banjo und Mandola) und Dominic Ward (Gitarre) und wird von Duncan Gardiner geleitet, einem professionellen Gitarristen, Komponisten und Musikforscher, der am Queensland Conservatorium der Griffith University einen Doktortitel in Musikwissenschaften erwirbt.
MARISSA Carroll followed her heart and her bloodline with her chosen instrument.
"My dad played in the Queensland Mandolin Orchestra and I would go along with him to performances," Carroll says.
"I started studying violin at University of Queensland last year but I switched to mandolin and I'm the only one doing that in Queensland and possibly in Australia.
"I love the fact that people always ask, 'What's that instrument?' and I get to tell them about it and introduce them to a whole new world of music."

MARISSA Carroll folgte ihrem Herzen und ihrem Stammbaum mit ihrem gewählten Instrument.
"Mein Vater spielte im Queensland Mandolin Orchestra und ich begleitete ihn zu den Auftritten", sagt Carroll.
"Letztes Jahr habe ich angefangen, an der Universität von Queensland Geige zu studieren, bin dann aber zur Mandoline gewechselt, und ich bin die Einzige in Queensland und wahrscheinlich in ganz Australien, die das tut.
"Ich liebe die Tatsache, dass die Leute immer fragen: 'Was ist das für ein Instrument?', und ich kann ihnen davon erzählen und sie in eine ganz neue Welt der Musik einführen."

Old Folks at Home (Swanee River) Stephen Foster (1826–1864) Arr. D. Gardiner
Stephen Foster was an American songwriter known primarily for his parlour songs, although much of his output was written for use in the blackface minstrel shows that were popular at the time. Of his vast oeuvre, Old Folks at Home (also known as Swanee River and Suwanee River), which was composed in 1851, is considered to be his most popular. Indeed, it was frequently performed in Queensland not only in minstrel shows, but also in concerts and recitals. On February 23, 1889, Señors Manuel Lopez and Mariano Martin (advertised locally as the Spanish Students) played the work as a duet for mandolin and guitar. The occasion was a Promenade Concert held at Her Majesty’s Opera House in Brisbane and the pair were brought in to boost ticket sales over the final few nights of the season. It was also played on November 29, 1898 by the Ipswich Mandoline Party at a concert held at the North Ipswich Congregational Church. The Ipswich Mandoline Party was a small ensemble consisting of four mandolins, zither, and guitar. This new arrangement begins with an extended cadenza-like guitar solo before the mandolin enters and takes up the nostalgic melody. The arrangement is supposed to sound dreamy and aqueous, evoking the freely flowing water of the Suwannee River, which may have originally inspired Foster’s song.
