Win 'Seven Songs To Leave Behind' experience



ABC Dig Music is giving you the chance to experience the musical highlight of this year's Melbourne International Arts Festival...

The Festival finishes with a flourish on October 23 when Sinead O'Connor, John Cale, Meshell Ndegeocello, Rickie Lee Jones, Gurrumul Yunupingu, Dan Sultan, Shellie Morris and other members of the Black Arm Band play seven songs each in one magical night: their first song, one song from Leonard Cohen, a song to share, a song they wish they’d written, two songs of their own and one song for the end of days – a song to leave behind.

Up for grabs from ABC Dig Music is return flights for two, one night's accommodation, reserved seating for the performance and the opportunity to mix it in the green room with the musicians.

All we want to know is what song would YOU like to leave behind.  In 100 words or less, we want to hear about your song of inspiration, hope, and joy and why that song that has a lasting legacy for you.

During the competition, entrants may be contacted by ABC Dig Music to have their choice recorded and put to air.

By submitting an entry you agree to accept and be bound by all terms and conditions.

The competition starts on Wednesday 29 September and runs through to Sunday 17 October.  The winner will be announced online on Tuesday 19 October and contacted directly.

The winner will be the entry that is judged the best by ABC Dig Music in terms of why it was chosen.
