A celebration
of queer composers across time and place.
An Auslan interpreter
will be present at this event.
The voices of LGBTQIA+ composers
can be heard in music throughout history, yet this is often omitted from
historical retellings, and so from our collective memories. Join the
musicians of Orchestra Victoria as they celebrate queer luminaries
of the past, and contemporary voices lighting the way into the future.
