Composers
Matthew Orlovich
Matthew Orlovich's sacred choral writing is deeply satisfying in originality and function, while chamber works such as Whirled Music spin classical, Latin, African and jazz colours into taut, vivid forms.
Paul Tanner
Paul Tanner's percussion spans marimba, vibraphone, cajón and the full range of pitched and unpitched colour. On record he drives cross-genre Australian chamber works that fuse classical, Latin, African and jazz, and delivers Roger Smalley's solo percussion with pinpoint finesse.
Cathie Travers
Cathie Travers is an Australian composer and piano accordionist linked with the contemporary music scene in Perth, Western Australia.

Transformation: Music for Percussion, Piano and Electronics
Roger Smalley was one of Australia’s most respected composers. He eschewed popular styles and left an oeuvre that is both thrilling and challenging, always at the highest musical level.
Mass of the Dreaming
It is remarkable that 2016 brought the first recording by an Australian choir devoted entirely to Australian sacred choral music. This disc fills that long gap with newly commissioned and recent works.
Harbour
This CD features the remarkable voice of the septuagenarian tenor Gerald English in works written especially for him by Andrew Ford. A star-studded gathering of musicians accompanies him and also plays three solo works.
In Memoriam
Roger Smalley AM (1943–2015) shaped contemporary composition in Australia. This project grew from his dual gift as a virtuoso pianist and as a composer of visceral solo piano music.
