Matt Hsu, Moderator. Matt Hsu is a QMA-winning founder of 25-piece Matt Hsu’s Obscure Orchestra — a vital outlier in Australia as one of few large alternative/indie ensembles that are POC-led. What began as Matt’s solo exhaust valve has blossomed into an acclaimed anti-racist alt-orchestra grounded in community-minded inclusivity. Matt’s mythos as an inimitable composer is firmly woven in cultural fabric, beloved for crafting cosy yet otherworldly sounds exploring juicy spaces between cultures. As 4ZZZ’s inaugural Community Engagement Coordinator and Woodfordia programmer, Matt is a key advocate for the kooky, strange, and diverse musicians shaping Queensland’s music scene.
