A year in the making!Ā We returned to Trackdown Studios in February to record the fanfares from 2021 with the Australian Youth Orchestra conducted by Carlo Antonioli. The chamber orchestra and the composers worked brilliantly to polish their works. The producer was Tony David Cray who recorded the 8 fanfares by Cassie Parke (NSW), Phillip Cullen (NSW), Charlie Wells (SA), Annika Ganesh (SA), Floyd Taylor (Tas), Will Hartley-Keane (Vic), Raphael Luxton (WA) and Bonnie Cook (WA). See the gallery,Ā here.

Sydney Youth Orchestras,Ā at their brand new home, will hold the workshop session for the 12 young composers selected in 2021 on the 3 April 2022.Ā We are looking forward to hearing the orchestra and new fanfares by: Abhinav Ananth (Age 14), Andrew Dharma (Age 12), Ashton Parris (Age 14), Billie Clow (Age 18), Catrin Wood (Age 19), Charlotte Leamon (Age 19), Heath Jelovic (Age 16), Johnny Yang (Age 19), Jonah Eskander (Age 19), Rhys Owen (Age 18), Sujin Kang (Age 18), Zoe Gougousidis (Age 19).
