Christina Green

Christina Green is a songwriter, composer, performer and multi-instrumentalist working in both the folk/acoustic and contemporary classical music contexts. Spanning styles from folk/rock to cabaret/chanson, her songs convey stories, observations and experiences with polished lyrics and guitar work, strong images and storytelling, and are complemented in live performances by occasional instrumental pieces. As a composer Christina writes in a range of styles, with recent works for piano combining jazz and classical elements.

“Christina sums up the 21st century lyrically and musically in 2 verses and a chorus. Her ability to make every word count is astonishing ”

— Baker Street Studios, Melbourne

News - November 2019

More than a month after the Irish and Celtic Music Festival in Yass, the buzz is still lingering - what a fabulous weekend of varied music! I am looking forward to some varied appearances in November/December, beginning with an interview in which I will talk a bit about current projects, and sing some songs, on Classically Saturday, with Jules Vines, on 3MDR 97.1 FM, Saturday November 9th, 10:20am.  I am also delighted and honoured to be involved in the Alex Legg Memorial Foundation Scholarship Presentation Concert on Sunday December 1st at Sooki Lounge in Belgrave, as a shortlisted applicant for the 2019 Scholarship, and look forward to participating in the concert which will feature performances by the shortlisted applicants. Writing, playing for joy, completing work in progress, dreaming the next CDs into being. All the best as the year turns toward the warm -

*****

An in-depth interview in which Christina talks about her songwriting journey has been done by UK-based musician, writer and artist Walki Freedreamer, who has worked with Christina as a musician/collaborator and sound engineer.  The interview has been published in Amplified, a journal for music lovers in British Mensa.  Walki has made the interview available online at https://lordwalkiwolf.livejournal.com/18819.html.

A new CD release, Melbourne Composers' League - Celebrating Twenty Years, includes a group of four short piano pieces written and performed by Christina from her Suite from Sighting Silence, Sounding Image, a work mostly composed on collaborative residency at the Bundanon Arts Trust, Shoalhaven Region, NSW, with visual artist Dr Flossie Peitsch, in 2012.  The CD can be purchased online at http://www.melbournecomposersleague.com/celebrating-twenty-years/.  Christina is delighted to have work included on the CD, which was launched at Montsalvat, Eltham, on November 12th 2017.
