New Now 2026

A showcase of boundless creativity and bold new directions, New Now celebrates the next wave of Australian musical voices.

Developed through the CoLAB: Composer Accelerator Program, New Now 2026 unveils four world premiere works from rising stars — Jessie Leov (NZ), Robert McIntyre (VIC), Thomas Misson (TAS) and Beth Roche (NSW) — each offering a distinct and fearless vision of the future.

Now in its sixth year, and with previous showcases selling out, New Now has quickly become an annual meeting ground where artists, industry and audiences alike come together to experience and celebrate the music and voices shaping tomorrow.
