Sixteen composers. One place. A whole new sound for Lutruwita/Tasmania.
We’ve brought together the biggest group of jazz composers ever assembled in Lutruwita to create brand-new music for the Clarence Jazz Festival’s 30th year – Elly Hoyt, Sandesh Pariyar, Kelly Ottaway, Spike Mason, Louise Denson, Lila Meleisea, Ian Chia, Louis Monaghan, Jesse Bowden, Matt Boden, Karlin Love, Ade Ishes, Sasha Gavlek, Erin Sherlock, Madelena Anderson Ward, Dewayne Everettsmith and Harry Edwards.
Each artist brings with their unique background, culture and lived experiences — and collectively, their work reflects the people and the Country we stand on.
They’ve spent the last nine months writing music shaped by this place, this is the first chance to hear what they’ve made.
This commission is supported by Festivals Australia.
