Info for Matt Cook: Braveship

Welcome aboard the Braveship. Written and composed by Dr Matt Cook, this symphonic story tells the musical tale of a young boy who sails aboard a magic airship across a universe of floating continents. He is soon joined by a princess in disguise, as well as an outlaw who offers him the Compass of Dreams – an artefact that guides them in their quest and helps navigate the human heart. An instant classic on an epic scale, this musical spectacular contains twelve instrumental movements, featuring virtuoso Eva Schaumkell on piano – and a song, Fly with Me, performed by Mirusia, the “Angel of Australia”.

This collectible album’s exclusive content includes narration by Irish voiceover artist Mary Hilary, a travel poster series, illustrations by preeminent international artists, and more. Audiences around the globe are invited to embark on this musical journey, become enchanted by the lushness and romance of the Braveship Suite, and relish its sweeping, timeless themes.

Mirusia Louwerse
An internationally acclaimed, highly successful musician, Mirusia Louwerse has always used her musical talent to uplift and enrich the lives of others.

As an ambassador for the Australian Children’s Music Foundation, a charity organisation working to expand access and equity in musical education, Mirusia is deeply invested in nurturing young talent, and has mentored many young singers and other musicians entering the industry.

Despite touring the world as a star soprano, she has always found time to give back, including conducting countless performances in places like aged-care facilities, since she was a child.

Mirusia knows the transformative power of music and is the ambassador for Silver Memories, a tailored, nostalgic music broadcasting service for older Australians, which is proven to increase happiness and wellbeing while providing a non-medical option for management of dementia.

Mirusia’s community service efforts were recognised with the 2024 Redlands Coast Citizen of the Year award.
