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 snapshots of everyday life, 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 ”

As the year gets fully underway I am looking forward to performances with singer-songwriter and collaborator Tracey Roberts, with the Melbourne Composers’ League, and at the Melbourne Ukulele Festival. I’ll have my new CD available at these shows. Songwriting continues, and the journey of making music happen with musical fellow travellers.
All good wishes
Christina
