The Voyage of Musical Discovery series was established and designed by the Australian Romantic & Classical Orchestra and its founding artistic director and world-renowned educator, the late Richard Gill.

The final Voyage of Musical Discovery reveals the multiple identities of composer, character and performer and the links between them.

The Voyage begins by uncovering some of the unusual effects that populate Mozart’s Don Giovanni and his Jupiter Symphony with a mixture of musical and dramatic identities.

The performer-composers of Topology also understand the diverse identities in the arts, and their work effortlessly crisscrosses artforms to forge connections with artists from theatre, dance, puppetry and comedy. 

This Voyage offers a close hearing of the many voices and viewpoints behind compositions spanning the historical to the new.
