Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of rehearsing and recording two new orchestral works with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra as part of the 2024-25 Australian Composer's School, alongside fellow composers Fiona Hill, Ben Robinson, and Naomi Dodds.
Under the conducting baton of Luke Dollman and the mentorship of Matthew Hindson and Maria Grenfell, we spent an intense and exhausting week developing and experimenting — a rare luxury with an orchestra of 50 musicians!
It was magical to hear the works develop so rapidly, which were recorded in Federation Concert Hall. I look forward to sharing the pieces here soon and to more projects over the course of the two-year program. Very grateful to everyone involved!
