Tom Denham's Dream Machine: S1E5: Nathan Wilson

Mon, 30 Aug 2021 23:55:19 GMT

How can we provide access to the arts programs for people in disadvantaged circumstances? Nathan Wilson has been embarking on this mission since 2016 when the conversation began around Project C, a creative arts program for school kids who may struggle to reach opportunities like playing an instrument or learning art, and having each of these assets under one roof being taught by at an industry standard.

In the opportunity you get to listen from Nathan, you will hear how the program started, the offshoots of opportunities that came along the way and how the program has hugely benefited one of the lowest socioeconomic parts of Victoria, Australia.

You can find out more about Project C at www.projectc.co and Tunes For Change on Facebook.

What if we used music to provide a voice for the unheard? This is the mission that Pia Nesvara is carrying out through her own song craft and performance in addition to providing mentoring for young aspiring musicians. Having made her mark in the Dandenong Ranges and Melbourne music community, she expresses her own voice through soul and folk music. In this week's episode, you will hear of Pia's work through her program 'Pitch Imperfect', which she is working with young people who feel they are voiceless in their individuality or music, and mentors them to build confidence and understanding of their own unique voice.

You can find more of Pia's work here.

What if making art was a gift-giving process?

This is exactly what Lance Peele speaks towards this idea in the creation phase of his music and poetry. Lance is a singer songwriter and poet who helps breathe life, groove and passion into the Jazz and Blues music scene, particularly in the Dandenong Ranges area in Melbourne. In our conversation we cast back to the formative period of Lance's discovery of the guitar, the value and worth of live performance and the emotions that come with the songwriting process.
