The Chamber Music Adelaide are excited to announce the launch of a new commissioning project with MOD. supported by funding from Arts SA! Exploring the theme of Invisibility through the 2022 exhibition at MOD., Chamber Music Adelaide will commission four South Australian composers to write new chamber works to be performed in-situ by South Australian artists in October and November 2022.
The INVISIBILITY Commission seeks three established artists to each compose a work which expresses through music ideas of invisibility as described in the exhibition, and to tell stories of individual experiences of invisibility. The works should be written for a small chamber ensemble of two to four instruments and be seven to ten minutes in duration.
A fourth commission is offered specifically for an early career artist to compose a work of four to six minutes’ duration. CMA acknowledges the support of individual donors and Creative Partnerships Australia for this commission.
Three established composers will be awarded $7000 each and one early-career composer $2500 for their commissions.
