7 Feb 2014 Hush - 12 composers write for children at hospitals by Maria Grenfell and Carolyn Philpott
The thirteenth volume in the Hush Collection, titled Hush: The Magic Island, features thirteen new orchestral works by twelve prominent Australian composers: Paul Stanhope, Elena Kats-Chernin, Matthew Hindson, Nigel Westlake, Paul Grabowsky, Ross Edwards, Peter Sculthorpe, Maria Grenfell, Brenton Broadstock, Graeme Koehne, Stuart Greenbaum and Iain Grandage. The composers were given a precise brief, which included visiting the hospitals to meet the young patients, their families and caregivers prior to setting pencil to manuscript, and the music was then recorded by the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra (TSO) under conductor Benjamin Northey. Composer Maria Grenfell writes about her contribution.
