Emerging Composers Forum

The Emerging Composers Forum was established in 2012, a national event creating opportunities for emerging composers through supporting the creation, workshopping, performance and recording of their works with the support of ABC Classic FM.

The Soundstream education stream creates open dialogue between conductors, musicians and the public through Musician Workshops, Visiting Composer Residencies, large scale community events and such intimate events as the New Waves Listening Club.
