An Australian Sound

An Australian sound!

Chris Sainsbury is the quintessential Australian composer! Some great examples of this Australian sound are highlighted among his 'favourites' under List of Works - including Cicada Summer from Three Haiku (score above in PDF), North Country Sketches, Aced, and Symphony of the Birds (see PDF above).

Also, ask about getting a copy of Two Haiku, My Eye Has Seen My Desire (Sound sample above), String Quartet (Seascapes), Girar, Light Falls Silent, Calder, Fire Engine, and Two Stories From Groote Eylandt.
