Sue W Chamber Music Composition Prize
As part of the the Sydney Conservatorium of Music’s ongoing initiative to support female composers in their career aspirations, a new composition prize sponsored by Sue and Richard Willgoss was offered for the first time in 2017. Named after Sue, the Sue W Chamber Music Composition Prize of $7,000 was awarded to a female composer judged to have written the best original chamber music work for 4 to 15 solo parts, with a playing time of twelve minutes maximum. The winner of the 2017 Sue W Chamber Music Composition Prize was Holly Harrison.
I was absolutely delighted to be the inaugural recipient of this award which seeks to acknowledge Australian female composers. It is a welcome boost to my creative confidence, and gives me the encouragement to continue composing with increased self belief for the future!
