About the music

A celebration of groundbreaking new directions, local voices and bold musical risk-taking. New Now is Omega Ensemble's annual showcase of Australian compositional talent.

Developed through the CoLAB: Composer Accelerator Program, New Now presents world-premiere works from four rising stars in a opportunity to flex their skills and tell their stories on a national platform.

This is the sound of Australia's future.

The CoLAB program is generously supported by the Darin Cooper Foundation, Sally and Geoffrey White, Stephanie Smee and Paul Schoff, Mark Wakely in memory of Steven Alward, John Claudianos and Jules Maxwell.
