March of the Women 2024: Connecting Australia
2024 is the fifth rendition of Eliza Shephard’s March of the Women celebration of female composers’ music from around the world, and this year plays host to a festival of Australian artists, both composers and performers performing a diverse selection of musical works for flute in both solo and chamber situations.
Featuring artists based both within Australia as well as internationally, March of the Women 2024: Connecting Australia is a showcase of how far and wide the artists of Down Under have travelled and explored their musical outreach.
Each artist has selected a piece by a composer whose music they resonate with, and the final collection of recordings is launching online and in physical format in July.
Connecting Australia celebrates the diversity and eclectic careers that Australian artists have pursued, and how the journey of a flute player can be varied and fruitful.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
