Timeline
Graeme John Koehne (born 3 August 1956), is an Australian composer and music educator.
He is best known for his orchestral and ballet scores, which are characterised by direct communicative style and embrace of tertian harmony.
His orchestral trilogy Unchained Melody, Powerhouse, and Elevator Music makes allusions to Hollywood film score traditions, cartoon music, popular Latin music and other dance forms.
Koehne was born in Adelaide.
He completed his undergraduate and post-graduate studies at the Elder Conservatorium of Music in that city, studying composition with Richard Meale – a pupil of Winifred Burston, who had been a pupil of Ferruccio Busoni.
In 1982 he won the Young Composers Prize at that year's Adelaide Festival, gaining him national attention for his orchestral work Rainforest.
In 1984, Koehne was awarded a Harkness Fellowship to work at the School of Music, Yale University.
For two years of the fellowship he also took private lessons with Virgil Thomson.
He returned to Australia in 1986 and was appointed Lecturer in Composition at the Elder Conservatorium of Music.
In the early 1990s he collaborated with librettist Louis Nowra on the chamber opera Love Burns, which was premiered at the 1992 Adelaide Festival.
Around this time, he commenced his long and fruitful collaboration with choreographer Graeme Murphy, which included a children's ballet based on Oscar Wilde's The Selfish Giant and the full-length work Nearly Beloved.
In 2001, Koehne was awarded the Centenary Medal.
As of 2005, Koehne is Head of Composition at the Elder Conservatorium of Music.
Until recently he also chaired the Music Board of the Australia Council and was a board member of the council.
Graeme is married to former model, now advertising Creative Director of Oranje Creative, Melinda Parent.
Graeme and Melinda have one son Willem Lukas Christiaan (born 2007).
In the 2014 Queen's Birthday Honours List, Koehne was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO), "for distinguished service to the performing arts as a composer of chamber, concert and ballet music, and through substantial contributions as an educator and arts administrator."
The APRA Awards are held in Australia and New Zealand by the Australasian Performing Right Association to recognise songwriting skills, sales and airplay performance by its members annually.
The Sir Bernard Heinze Memorial Award is given to a person who has made an outstanding contribution to music in Australia.
