Artemis Orchestra "The Elephant In The Room" Album Launch (expired event)

Join us for the launch of our debut album "The Elephant In The Room," an album of original music by Western Australian women.

Artemis Orchestra 1st Set 8pm Artemis Orchestra 2nd Set 9pm Featured Composers: Gemma Farrell, Alice Humphries, Maddie Ivy, Amelia Jutilane, Alana Macpherson, Kate Pass, Candice Susnjar The Artemis Orchestra was founded by Gemma Farrell in 2017, with the hope of promoting people of marginalised genders in jazz as musicians, soloists and composers. Less than a quarter of all professional jazz musicians worldwide are female, and even less are non-binary and transgender and this is something which we hope will change for the better in future. The goal is that having an ensemble like this, which is predominately made up of professional female musicians, and also includes non-binary musicians, will inspire young people of maginalised genders in Perth to consider taking on a career in jazz.
