Blinky Bills White Christmas Music Credits Music Composed by Guy Gross "Christmas In Australia" Performed by Christine Anu Composed by Guy Gross. Lyrics by John Palmer Published by Mushroom Music. "Christmas in Australia" Recorded & Mixed By Simon Leadley & Tim Ryan String Arrangement by James Lee Strings: Click Track Music Ensemble Piano: Michael Bartolomei Guitar: Rex Goh Produced by Guy Gross Lyrics of the song performed by Christine Anu that runs over the opening sequence and the tail credits and also appears within the movie: It's Christmas in Australia A time of peace and love It's Christmas in Australia With southern skies above From busy towns and cities To the outback far away We come together to rejoice Because it's Christmas Day The summer nights, the fairy lights And laughter everywhere The church bells ring, the bellbirds sing And joy is in the air With family and friends at home Around the Christmas tree That's what Christmas in Australia Will always mean to me … Down under when it's Christmas time There's lots for kids to do Like making cards and making cakes And making mischief too And Santa Claus is not surprised To hear the children say: "I want it to be Christmas Every single day" The summer days, the Christmas plays And laughter everywhere The church bells ring, the bellbirds sing And joy is in the air With family and friends at home Around the Christmas tree That's what Christmas in Australia Will always mean to me … At around the 44 minute mark (in the off-air version used by this site), Johnny the Rabbit adds a couple of verses … … a time to share, a time to care A time when dreams come true A time to think about the worth Of everything we do For on this little world of ours We're all one family So come and join us as we sing Around a Christmas tree Singer Christine Anu is too well known to dwell on here. She has a reasonably detailed wiki here, and at time of writing, her eponymous website here. (Below: Christine Anu). Composer Guy Gross: At time of writing, composer Guy Gross - and in this case, also producer, director and co-writer - had his own website here. It contained this CV and these credits: Guy Gross is one of Australia's leading film and television composers and recipient of the APRA/AGSC International Achievement Award. In 2012 he was elected president of the Australian Guild of Screen Composers. From his British Academy Award (BAFTA) nominated score to the international hit "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert to the US SCI-FI series "Farscape", his film scores cover a huge variety of styles. Testament to this diversity, Guy has received numerous peer awards including Best Music for a Documentary, Children's Series, Short film, Animation, Promotional Video, Advertisement, TV Theme and twice for Best Music for a TV Series. Over his 30 year career, Guy has composed music for hundreds of hours of television, including dramatic mini series, children's animation, documentaries, commercials and also a number of Australian feature films. His film music has underscored the acting performances of Toni Collette, Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving, Garry McDonald, Molly Ringwald, Kylie Minogue, Phil Collins, Guy Pearce and Olivia Newton John and his scores have been performed in concert by the Sydney, Melbourne and Queensland Symphony Orchestras. Guy began film scoring while still studying composition at the Conservatorium High School in Sydney, Australia. Son of film producers Yoram and Sandra Gross, he began scoring many of the family companies' feature and television projects. Following in his father's footsteps, Guy directed and scored the animated TV series "Old Tom and wrote, scored, produced, and directed the animated television special "Blinky Bill's White Christmas". At the age of 26, Guy scored his first feature film, "Frauds" directed by Stephan Elliott and went on to score four features with Stephan including the 1994 international hit "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" and more recently, "A Few Best Men". In '95, Guy composed his award winning score to the ABC TV series "Bordertown" for Knapman Wyld Television for whom he has also scored all three seasons of the internationally award winning TV Series "East West 101". In 1999 Guy received the (shared) award for Best Music at the Tropicana Film Festival (Tropfest) for his score to that year's winning short film "Uno Amore". That year Guy also composed the score to the horror feature film "Cut" for Mushroom Pictures and soon after that began scoring the hit Sci-Fi series "Farscape" produced by The Jim Henson Company. "Farscape" has been a monumental project for Guy keeping him busy for over three years culminating in a big budget, 2 part television mini series "Farscape - Peacekeeper Wars" which enabled him to enlist the services of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and conduct the 140 strong orchestra and choir to create one of his largest film scores to- date. Farscape has spun off five Soundtrack Albums. In recent years Guy has scored the tele-movies: "Dangerous Remedy", "A Model Daughter - The Killing of Caroline Byrne", "Joanne Lees: Murder in the Outback", "Scorched", documentaries: "The Howard Years", "The Prime Minister is Missing" and "Who Killed Dr Bogle and Mrs Chandler?". Guy owns a recording studio complex in Camperdown, Sydney which houses a number of studios and composing suites.

  • Fulltimeoperationsince1996
    | 23 is 10! | Welcome to a celebration of our 10th birthday. First a word from Tony MacGregor, Chair of the Open City Board of Management. This company was established by Keith Gallasch and Virginia Baxter in 1987 for the collaborative works they performed in theatres, galleries and on radio. In 1994 Open City began to publish RealTime+OnScreen which has been a fulltime operation since 1996. FROM THE CHAIR I’ve been free-associating around those words—real, time—looking for a RT61 JUNE / JULY 04 way into writing about this thing I’ve been hovering around for these past 10 years. Longer really, because RealTime was an idea long before it was a reality, one of those determinations that Keith Gallasch and Virginia Baxter make and then work into existence: “mainstream theatre criticism is hopeless, we need a journal that deals properly with the per- formance community in all its hybrid, messy complexity.” (Or words to that effect.) And, lo, it was so. How many ideas have taken shape, been given form in the endless conversa- tion around that generous wooden table in the kitchen at Womerah Avenue, Darlinghurst where Gallasch and Baxter have lived since their arrival from Adelaide in 1986? Like so many projects which have been founded on their energy and ideas—Troupe in Adelaide, Open City, all those performances—once deemed A Good Idea, RealTime seemed inevitable, an idea made real through that seemingly irresistible combination of clear argument, creative invention, per- sonal passion, A-grade grant writing The RealTime team: Keith Gallasch, Dan Edwards, Gail Priest, Virginia Baxter Heidrun Löhr skills and the sheer bloody mindedness that they bring to all their projects.
