Anton Lock
Composer
Since graduating from the Conservatorium of Music High School Sydney in 2003 Anton has pursued a successful and diverse professional musical career. In 2004 he became a full-time performing member of the renowned Australian based Taiko drumming group Taikoz, where, as a young performer he was privileged to study under both Ian Cleworth and Riley Lee developing skills in performance not only as a musician but also as a dancer. Highlight projects during this time include performances at the Sydney Opera House, The Pompidou Centre Paris and Japan National Theatre as well as touring extensively across Australia, Asia, Europe, USA, and New Zealand. Most notable collaborations include Meryl Tankard, Bell Shakespeare Company, Eitetsu Hayashi, Kodo, Andre Molino, Yoshikazu Fujimoto, Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Synergy Percussion.
In 2016 Anton re-located to Colombia South America where he worked as a recording artist and producer, collaborating with multiple artists and touring with his first solo “DJ Drumming” show. The introduction to latin music has since had a big influence on his musical journey.
In 2019 Anton began his musical journey with the esteemed Cirque Du Soleil Company as a performing member of the Kurios show.
