Renaissance man Aaron Wyatt is an accomplished violist, conductor, composer, programmer and academic. The first Indigenous Australian to conduct a state symphony orchestra in concert, he has conducted for MSO, ASO, SSO, WA Opera, and Perth Festival. He is Director of Ensemble Dutala, Australia’s first First Nations chamber ensemble. A long-term member of the award-winning Decibel New Music ensemble, he is also the developer behind the Decibel ScorePlayer app, the group’s cutting edge, animated graphic notation software for the iPad.
Wyatt curates a prismatic retrospective of recent commissions for major presenters, composed for diverse instrumental combinations, and highlighting his variegated musical and conceptual interests – including the interplay of sound, the emergent poetic vision to which this gives way, glimpses of awe and beauty in the natural world, its fragility and its interaction with the human impact of our modern existence, and notions of community and of the freedom to be who we really are. Shimmering soundscapes depict lush canopies of forest, canvases of deep azure, the piercing first light of dawn, and the dramatic colours of blazing sunrise.
