Abigail Lui

Abigail Lui is a composer and violinist inspired by the stories that help us make sense of the world. As Camerata’s Emerging Composer-in-Residence (2025), a recipient of ABC Classic’s Composer Commissioning Fund (2024) and winner of Adelaide Chamber Music School’s String Quartet Composition Prize (2022), she is fast gaining a reputation for expressive and intuitive writing that’s equally lucid in concert hall and community. 

She has taken part in composition programs with the Australian Youth Orchestra (2024-25), Queensland Youth Orchestra (2023), Topology (2022-23), and Singapore-based choir Vox Camerata (2022-23), and is studying a Bachelor of Music Honours and Science at the University of Queensland.
