Join the Canberra International Music Festival from 1-5 May for the Festival’s 30th anniversary and Artistic Director Roland Peelman’s final Festival after ten years at the helm.
The Canberra International Music Festival (CIMF) presents a festival of classical and contemporary art music in May each year, with programming unique to our national capital. CIMF’s artistic scope accommodates the breadth of the Western classical tradition – early and medieval music, baroque, classical, romantic, 20th Century and new music – alongside classical traditions from around the world, diverse Indigenous music, and the spectrum of contemporary art music.
Many words in the Indigenous languages around the nation we call Australia express aspects or components of the word ‘joy’. Yet hardly any express the full connotations of the word as we so liberally use or portray it. In the language of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people, the most prominent of Canberra’s First Nations people, mulanggari means ‘alive’. No better word could be found to affirm the past, the present and the future against all the odds. That is a reason to be joyful – and a hell of a reason to make music.
