The January 2014
Melbourne Conference is producing an exciting new
musical based on the novel A Time To Hear by SJ Knight. The script and
some key songs have been written. Casting
Auditions will be held in
Melbourne in June 2013, God Willing, and we encourage anyone in
Victoria
to apply. There are roles for all ages from young children to the
elderly.
Now we are seeking composers/song-writers who can go
beyond writing tunes and ballads. We need people to write chorus
numbers, and
orchestral music. We also need an experienced arranger to
spin straw into gold!
This
production is an ego-free zone, and
musicians must be willing to collaborate, work closely with other
writers, and take direction in order to produce a professionally
harmonious whole. Compositions used will be assigned due credit and
copyright, and it is hoped that a
CD might be produced as a result.
This project is a rare opportunity for musicians of all ages to use
their composing talents in our community. Experience in writing for
musical theatre is not essential, but would be particularly welcome.
Thanks to the internet, it is not necessary that you live in Victoria,
or even
Australia, to contribute to this vital side of the production.
