Green guitar

The Green Guitar is an exciting new music project bringing together female forces in Australian composition to create new works for guitar inspired by the theme of ‘green’ in response to the climate crisis. This project aims to broaden the guitar repertoire and contribute to bridging the gender gap in a male-dominated field. The new ‘green’ works for guitar form a collective call to action on climate change. To connect with a larger domestic and international audience, the new works will be studio recorded, culminating in a Green Guitar album, and also have engaging music videos. Two new commissions Royal Jelly by Holly Harrison and // Imbalance by Helen Svoboda were premiered in September 2022 in Hamburg. Australian premieres to be announced for 2023.
