2019 BIGSOUND Bursary Winners Revealed
Meet the five emerging Queensland artists and music industry practitioners set to take on BIGSOUND 2019, thanks to QMusic’s donor community, The Saints.
Queensland composer, electric guitarist and improviser Liam Flenady is among seven recipients of the 2019 Art Music Fund.
Since 2016, the Art Music Fund has awarded a total of more than $400,000 to Australian and New Zealand composers creating brave, new and lasting works. The 2019 Art Music Fund's $100,000 allocation will support a range of projects coming to life - from concertos to opera to the avant-garde.
Liam's project centres on the composition of a new 30-minute, continuous multi-movement work The Five Seasons for trombone and percussion, based on themes of geological time, non-Western concepts of time and seasons, and ecological crisis.
Congratulations Liam!
