CAM is delighted to present its first concert in America. In true CAM fashion, this programme celebrates the diversity of native-born and émigré Australian composers.
Our thanks to Artist Migration for supporting this recital and providing such a ‘cool’ Californian venue at the Piano Palace – the perfect ambience for an afternoon of musical discovery. Thanks also to our sponsors Wirripang, Home of Australian Composers.
