                                          Dr Graeme Skinner is a writer, musicologist and specialist in Australian music history. Author of an acclaimed biography Peter Sculthorpe: the making of an Australian composer (UNSW Press 2007), he is also a widely published writer of concert program notes, including recently for the Australian Chamber Orchestra, the Czech Philharmonic, Sydney and Melbourne Symphonies, and Brisbane Festival.

                                          In 2007 he was a Harold White Fellow at the National Library of Australia, and a featured author at the 2008 Sydney Writers Festival. His research and publications have been supported by major funding from the Australia Council for the Arts and the University of Sydney.

He has published books, academic book chapters, and peer-reviewed journal articles in both his main areas of his scholarly research to date, the history of Australian music and musical composition, and the historical sacred liturgical music sources, plainsong and polyphony, of Toledo Cathedral in Spain.
                                          He is currently (2011-2014) an Honorary Associate of the University of Sydney, in the Musicology Unit, Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
