Queensland Music Festival launches 2015 program
Eleven world premieres, hundreds of workshops and performances, a range of international stars, and a celebration of traditional languages, music and song will feature in the biennial Queensland Music Festival, with events programmed in 26 cities, towns and remote corners across the state from 17 July to 2 August 2015.
QMF Artistic Director James Morrison said the Festival was all about transforming lives through music and he was excited to reveal this year’s program.
‘Music has the power to move people and transform lives, and QMF is passionate about bringing sublime sounds to people wherever they are in the state,’ Morrison said.
‘We will fly artists to the furthest flung regions of Cape York, see one of the world’s most remote symphony orchestras perform in Mount Isa, and bring together hundreds of Logan locals in a musical celebration of their multicultural city. The geographic scale and musical legacies created by QMF’s monumental regional projects make the festival unique in Australia, and possibly the world.’
The 2015 Queensland Music Festival runs from 17 July – 2 August. Full program available at qmf.org.au.
