22.01.2022 Hip Hop Harp Concerto | Grand Divisions | Fairfax Studio | Arts Centre Melbourne | 2015 "The audience for Grand DiVisions was the most various I have ever seen at the Art Centre. It was maybe the first time there that I felt that the composition of the audience and performance reflected the people I see on the streets of Melbourne. Its a safe bet that many of them had never been in the Arts Centre before, and I can only hope its not the last. Grand DiVisions... is an exhila...rating glimpse of worlds and realities too often kept out of our plush temples of culture. The polished energy of 21 young singers, spoken word artists and dancers, backed by an orchestra, hits you right in the sternum." -ALISON CROGGON | ABC ARTS https://bit.ly/HipHopHarpConcerto
