​Sign Of Four​
Held at the Fremantle Workers Club, 36 Ellen Street Fremantle.
Sign of Four is a contemporary string quartet formed in 2022 by Shenzo Gregorio, Daniel Drieberg, Mardae Selepak, and Jude Iddison. Violins, mandolin, guitar, octave viola, and lush vocal harmonies are showcased in a predominantly jazz focused repertoire, with tastes of classical, Celtic, and Latin. Sign of Four play innovative arrangements of vocal and instrumental jazz standards, interpretations of contemporary favourites, gypsy jazz, and original compositions, taking audiences on an exhilarating, and inspiring musical journey. Shenzo Gregorio brings decades of musical experience and innovation through his cross- genre improvisational and multi-instrumental skills. A master of the violin and guitar, Shenzo also showcases his idiosyncratic creations on the octave viola.
Daniel Drieberg is a prize winning WAAPA jazz graduate with exquisite multi- instrumentalist skills on violin, mandolin, and vocals. He combines these with an infectious energy that enlivens his musical collaborators and delights audiences. Mardae Selepak is a vibrant young classical guitar maestro whose musicality transcends genres. His sublime compositions and vocals bring an added grace and depth to Sign of Four’s arrangements and performances. Jude Iddison is currently undertaking a PhD into violin improvisation. Her lifelong fascination and irresistible curiosity with a diverse range of musical styles is highlighted in her sensitive and expansive violin playing and eclectic compositions.
