Fiona Hill is a composer for film, TV, dance, theatre and art music. Her unique electroacoustic work sources sounds from nature and industrial environments, composing music that occupies an experimental, freethinking yet universally beautiful place.
Recent scores include TV theme for ‘A dog’s tale’ which aired nationally on WIN in 2019 as well as music for the theatre show ‘Victor Ego - or the brainstorm’ which toured Guernsey and the south coast of NSW. Recent art music compositions include ‘Pentography’ (2018) for Ensemble Offspring, premiering in the Utzon room at the Sydney Opera House and ‘Romancing the Dragon’ (2018) for electric guitar and string quartet. In 2018/2019 Fiona has been working closely with flautist and new music specialist Lamorna Nightingale to create the work ‘Imago’ as part of the ‘Other Voices’ project. This hard hitting electroacoustic work, based on the tragedy of Forced Adoption in Australia, was composed with the assistance the APRA Art Music Fund and the Australia Council for the Arts. Other previous electroacoustic projects include: Chromoson (2010), for electronics, solo soprano, and film in 10 channel surround sound with multiple projections, Unity in Blue (2008) for 9 musicians and electroacoustics in quadrophonic sound and Spider (2006) for electronics and String Quartet (featured on Australian Broadcasting Commission’s Arts Sunday).
