10 YEARS OF MUSIC. 10 COMMISSIONS. 10 COMPOSERS
As a musical celebration of the 10th Anniversary of Melbourne Recital Centre, 10 composers have each created a new work to be performed at the Centre throughout 2019.
The 10 composers, selected by Marshall McGuire, Melbourne Recital Centre’s Director of Programming, represent a diverse range of musical styles but are unified by their critical acclaim and dedication to their craft.
