Louisa Trewartha (born 1989) is an Australian classical composer and trumpeter.[1]
Trewartha studied music at both the University of Melbourne and trumpet at the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM).[2] In Dublin, she studied a Masters in Scoring for Film and Visual Media.[3] She was selected to join the Australian Composers School with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra in 2017, where she was mentored by composers Jessica Wells, Maria Grenfell and Paul Stanhope.[4]
Her work for solo double bass, Anderson's Kew, is one of very few works that feature the instrument and celebrates Australian feminist icon Alice Anderson.[5] Her work Inspire was commissioned as part of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra's 50 Fanfares, launched in 2020.[6][7] Trewartha was named in Yamaha's 2024 International Women's Day global selection of “Women Who Make Waves”.[8][9]
In 2024, Trewartha's Suite Water for brass quintet was released. The work consists of five movements that explore aspects of the human relationship with water based on her experiences in Australia. It was commissioned by the ABC Classic and ABC Jazz Composer Commissioning Fund.[10][11]
Trewartha has composed works for orchestras, bands and ensembles in Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. Her solo works have been selected for national brass band competitions and VCE music performance repertoire. She has been commissioned to write a new work for the 2025 ANAM Set.[12]
