“I entered the fanfare competition for the amazing opportunity that was on offer. I first came across this competition in 2016 and it has been my goal ever since. It was unreal to receive that phone call, I finally felt good enough as a composer when I received the opportunity. I would recommend this experience to anyone”, says Claire Houghton (Age 18, NSW/Qld) Hear Claire’s fanfare ‘Excuse Me’
“I had two thoughts: “Wow this is amazing, this is why I compose!” and also “Damn, why’d I give the horns that C#…” It was very inspiring working with such awesome musicians in a great studio, and also a big learning experience regarding orchestration”, says Finn Clarke (Age 20, Tas) Hear Finn’s fanfare.
We are pleased to announce the Raw Filmmakers pilot program will be produced by ABC Indigenous. Recording for All My Friends are Racist by Enoch Mailangi commences July 2020. The story takes a look at the differences and complexities of not only different Indigenous people but non-Indigenous, and it reflects that in its tone. Young adults from various cultural backgrounds wanting the party to never end. Their life is a never-ending Janelle Monae music video. It’s loud and colourful!
