Transformations: Old Made New (Coolum Beach)

Aaron Brown’s Transformations: Old Made New explores contemporary Australian compositions inspired by early music traditions.

Ancient songs and dances are re-imagined through a blend of early music, modal jazz, and world music, creating a dynamic connection between past and present.

A performer and composer, Aaron Brown specialises in historical instruments, repertoires, improvisation, and genre-bending new music shaped by historical sources. He has collaborated with leading artists and ensembles in Australia, the United States, and Europe, including the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra (where he is a current ensemble member), Trinity Baroque Orchestra, New Juilliard Ensemble (premiering a work by Steve Reich), and the Queensland Symphony Orchestra.
