Oliver John Cameron
Composer
Unafraid to tackle any genre, Oliver John Cameron’s compositions are informed by music theatre, pop and modern classical aesthetics. He completed a Bachelor of Music (Composition) with Honours at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in 2015 and is currently the composer-in-residence at Meriden School. Oliver’s accolades include the Emerging Artist Award at Adelaide Fringe Festival for his musical, ‘The Colour Orange’, and his work ‘five lullabies for uncertain times’ won the Willgoss Choral Prize in 2021.
In 2023, Oliver commenced a Master of Composition degree under the supervision of Paul Stanhope at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. He is one of four candidates to take part in the Conservatorium’s inaugural Words, Text, Voice, Music program which will culminate in the development of an original operatic work staged by NIDA in 2024.
