In January 2015 ABC Classic FM says goodbye to New Music Up Late as we have known it with the re-broadcast of several live event highlights from the past year. And look to the future with a focus on the emerging generation of composers, musicians and musical commentators courtesy of the WASO Young Composer Project 2014, MODART 13, and the 2015 AYO Summer School's 'Words about Music' program.

Concert broadcasts in January feature portrait concerts of the music of Stuart Greenbaum and of Malcolm Williamson, and classics by F.S. Kelly (1915) and Peter Sculthorpe (1977), as well as new and recent works by William Barton, Graeme Koehne, Raffaele Marcellino, Brett Dean, Andrew Chubb, Lee Bracegirdle, Elena Kats-Chernin and Iain Grandage. The month also features the best of Sunday Live including music by Peter Sculthorpe, Elena Kats-Chernin, Matthew Hindson and Gordon Kerry.

Online the New Waves podcasts present new music by emerging composers created for the Soundstream Emerging Composers' Fellowship before taking a short January summer break And the latest addition to Rewind is a new recording of Raymond Hanson's 1946 Violin Concerto performed by Elizabeth Layton and the Adelaide Symphony orchestra under Thomas Woods.
