Luke Styles, one of Australia's leading and most widely performed international composers, joins us for an evening of music and conversation as we explore the collection of Luke's works held by the Library.
Luke Styles is joined by musical collaborator Tobias Cole to discuss Luke's work, his career and the role the Library plays in creating a living collection of prominent Australian artists' works.
Performances from the collection include Luke's vocal music and two of his chamber works for strings. Performing on the evening are violinist Brad Tham, members of the Canberra Symphony Orchestra chorus, Canberra Childrenโ€™s Choir (Music for Canberra), Vocal Fry (ANU Community Music Centre), pianist Linus Lee and conductor Tobias Cole.
