Meredith Connie
Meredith Connie concertises regularly as a soloist and with ensembles over a wide range of styles and periods. Known for her vitality as a performer and her charm as a presenter, she puts concert music in context and audiences at their ease.
Meredith Connie is a recent transplant to Melbourne. Originally from Australia, she began her guitar studies there at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music before moving to the US to pursue performance and instruction. During that time early childhood pedagogy and composition took on a larger role in her career; her works reflect this, as well as a long-lasting passion for chamber music and collaboration.
Composition is a way for her to explore more facets of the music-making process. Often mixing mediums, her pieces combine live and manipulated sound, text and music, and collage techniques of layered improvised tracks. Children’s poetry, waves crashing, sea lions calling and other media open the world of sound, offer audiences another way in, and create fresh paths of communication.
