COMPOSER Paul Dean’s new work, “Symphony”, is the commissioned centrepiece of three concerts throughout the country by the Australian World Orchestra, playing under the baton of conductor Alexander Briger. The piece is Australian at its core, with a homage to the sounds of sunrise by the riverbank and the drama of an early morning Brisbane storm.
