Event Details
Homophonic! is bringing the disco ball to the Fitzroy Town Hall and celebrating the long and proud history of queer musical artistry with a program written by, for, and about lgbtiq+ victorians. Presenting for the first time, 5 works from the RESPECT commissioning project, telling the stories of LGBTIQ+ elders through music. Written by Louisa Trewartha, Caerwen Martin, Meta Cohen, and premieres by Naima Fine and Andrew Aronowicz; these works for voices and strings are inspired through intergenerational conversations between composers and the elders being recognised. They are emotional, powerful storytelling; maintaining our shared cultural queer history through music, humour, and a healthy dose of shared outrage. Directed and Presented by Homophonic! Artistic Director Miranda Hill.; performed by The Consort of Melbourne and the Homophonic! string quintet.
Homophonic! presents RESPECT is part of On the Road Again, a Victorian Government initiative to bring live music back across the state.
