Remembering Quincy Jones through his soundtracks, Ingrid Fliter with the SSO and more
| | | When she died in 1984, Margaret Sutherland was remembered as the 'matriarch' of Australian music. But few outside of the classical music world know her name today.
Sutherland made a significant contribution to Australia's music and arts scene, despite the challenges of being a woman and composer through the mid-20th century.
Musicians and academics are working to change Sutherland's unsung status, performing music that's rarely been heard since her death, and even unearthing music that was previously thought lost. | | |
