Ithaka was premiered at the Melbourne Town Hall by the University of Melbourne Orchestra under the baton of Fabian Russell. The piece was written as part of post-graduate studies with Professor Stuart Greenbaum, at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music. Ithaka is inspired by CP Cavafy's poem, and incorporates synthesizers, human drum machines, and lush Romantic orchestral colours
