As a chamber musician, she has appeared in concerts across Australia, including the 2024 world premiere of Andrew Howes’ The Eyes of the Earth for saxophone and string quartet at the Lyrebird Festival. Later this year, she will tour with the Bowerbird Collective and accordion virtuoso James Crabb in various performances throughout Tasmania and the Blue Mountains.

Alongside her performing career, Alice is an experienced producer and orchestral manager as one of the founding members of Ensemble Apex. She has been a loyal part of the production team for many of their successful concerts, ranging from RUEL x Red Bull Symphonic to Verdi’s Requiem at Judith Neilson’s Dangrove.
