Colin Bright

Welcome !

I am a composer of, for want of a better expression - art music.  That is, concert and electronic music composed in the so called contemporary 'classical' music tradition. My compositions aim to define aspects of where I live (i.e. 'place'), and how I/we live (my perception of the psychological state of the society of which I am a part).

The primary influences on my music are Australian aboriginal music, especially didjeridoo (didjeridu), but also some elements of jazz, rock and techno.

I am also interested in computer & electronic music, multimedia, and particular aspects of micro-tonality.

I live in an apartment overlooking a beach at Dee Why (near Manly) in Sydney, Australia, and I like to go body surfing or swimming when I am not composing music.

My music has been performed and broadcast in 27 countries throughout the world.

There is FREE MUSIC to listen to and there is a CD or two for sale if you like the sounds.
