Be sure to book your tickets for the Conference Dinner - Enjoy the spectacular location of the Star Room at Darling Harbour - directly above the Imax theatre, fine food and interactive entertainment with Claudia Chambers from Aurora Percussion and the Sylvanbeats. 

The Sylvanbeats is an ensemble which has emerged over the past three years of weekly Cajon and Percussion Workshops run by Claudia Chambers (Learn Cajon) in partnership with the Sylvanvale Foundation and with the support of Sutherland PCYC. From a one-off series of workshops for a group of interested adults, the Sylvanbeats Ensemble has emerged as a magical and gifted group of adults with something very special to share. The central instrument used in the ensemble is the Cajon - a wooden hand drum which can sound very similar to a drum kit. In the ensemble it is played by the musicians with hands, drumsticks and other Cajon accessories. The Sylvanbeats invite you to come with them on a magical journey into the world of percussive soundscapes and high energy rhythms, culminating in a Cajon drumming and dance fiesta expressing desire and celebrating life!  

Sure to be a memorable conference dinner - don't miss out!


Dinner guests will enjoy the drumming performance and interactive workshop followed by dancing to your favourite jukebox hits and fun with the photo booth.  Wonderful company, great food, spectacular views and fabulous entertainment.  This dinner will have it all.
