My debut EP Geburtstag is out today through Corella Records!

This digital release is the recording of the four works that I commissioned in 2019 to celebrate my Helge Grawert violin's tenth birthday. It features:

​Chris Perren : Escapement for violin and mechanical metronome (ft. Jodie Rottle)
Connor D'Netto : actually untitled (sonata no. 2 for solo violin)
Kezia Yap : conversation in the mountain for violin and electronics
MJ O'Neill : Heroes (Movements I & II) for looping violin and tape

A huge thank you to:
  • Helge Grawert, for making the wonderful instrument that has been part of my music-making for almost thirteen years now;
  • the composers Chris Perren, Connor D'Netto, Kezia Yap and MJ O'Neill for writing such uniquely beautiful works that have challenged me to extend my musicianship in new ways;
  • Jodie Rottle for being the wonderful metronomist for Escapement;
  • Chris Perren and his students at the University of Queensland School of Music for working on the recording and release;
  • Chris Perren and Connor D'Netto for editing;
  • Chris Perren for mixing;
  • Lawrence English at Negative Space for mastering;
  • George Levi for creating the amazing artwork for the single and EP;
  • Todd Reynolds, Phoebe Bognár and Connor D'Netto for their invaluable artistic and technical expertise during the development of the works and their performance;
  • Ilja Grawert, Simply For Strings, Leatherwood Bespoke Rosin for their support of the Geburtstag project; and
  • All of the donors who supported the Geburtstag project through the Australian Cultural Fund campaign for making the commissioning of these works possible.
