Earth, Sea and Sky: The Australian Guitar

  • Richard Gill Auditorium (WAAPA) 2 Bradford Street Mount Lawley, WA, 6050 Australia (map)

The creative vision of new Australian music for the guitar is one that is expansive and poetic, adapting to the inspiring vistas of our picturesque landscapes and the oddities of our unique natural environment. This event combines performances of new and recent Australian guitar works with readings of poems by acclaimed poet Glen Phillips – a poet renowned for his expressive depictions of uniquely Western Australian settings.

Directed by Dr Jonathan Paget, the concert includes guitar solos and chamber works performed by WAAPA students, staff and the Perth Guitar Quartet.
