Wally Gunn received a Bachelor of Music Performance (Composition) with Honours degree in 2006.
Study Interactive Composition at the Conservatorium
We focus on commercially driven cross-art modes of composition which may include writing music for events, film, television, animation, theatre, music theatre, dance, pop song, advertising, video gaming, online, installation art and sound design.
Our composers create new artistic work in group environments and embrace the theoretical and practical study of the harmonic, melodic, rhythmic and formal structures and process of contemporary music.
