Sydney Philharmonia Choirs and Elizabeth Scott

Luke has played, chorus-master’d and composed for Sydney Philharmonia since 2009, but none of it would ever have happened without his friend and colleague Elizabeth Scott.

As well as working on countless rehearsals and projects over the years, she commissioned him to compose what would become one of his most significant and well-received works ever, Four Songs from Grimm’s (particularly Foundling). Not content to merely commission him, Elizabeth has since championed his music around Australia and the world ever since, to the extent that Foundling has travelled to parts of the world that he hasn’t, and he is much older than it is!
