Composition Showcase: Self-Constellations

The Composition Honours and Graduate Diploma cohort presents Self-Constellations; a journey from sky to self. Hear everything from the grandeur of gods gone wrong and the search for righteousness, to the smallest sound in an intimate moment all woven together by magical interludes in a series of new works by composers including Hayden Taylor, Tilly Jones, Katerina Stathis and Kylie Cheah.

Please note that some of these compositions include high pitched noises, low-pitched drones, and discuss themes of grief, loss, anxiety, and terminal illness.

PARKING 

The City of Melbourne has changed the parking restrictions around the Southbank Campus. Parking control hours are now expanded to 7am–10pm, seven days per week, and are capped at three hours. A $2-per-hour fee after 7pm is also now in place. There is no change to the $4-per-hour peak rate between 7am–7pm. Parking inspectors are regularly in the area fining drivers who overstay their meter, so we encourage everyone to be aware and avoid an expensive fine.  

ACCESSIBILITY 

We are committed to making our events accessible and will accommodate requirements wherever possible. All venues at the Southbank campus are wheelchair accessible. Please contact us at fineartsmusic-tickets@unimelb.edu.au if you have any questions.
