Katy Abbott

Katy Abbott’s work has been widely performed, recorded, awarded and published with recent performances by ensembles such as Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Halcyon and Collision Theory. A recording of her symphony 'Souls of Fire' by The Kiev Philharmonic Orchestra was released in 2008. Abbott holds a PhD from The University of Melbourne where she also supervises graduate composers and lectures.

Abbott says of her music: 'In my music, I am trying to capture the little things that make us human or happen to us because we are human. I seek to unpack the human side of life; humour, foibles, quirky things we do and say, beauty, grief and friendship'.
