Meet Alana Bartlett, our super talented Music Quiz Master.

Alana shares her time and enthusiasm for music with Blind Sports and Recreation Victoria.

Alana Bartlett is a talented musician who shares her love of all things music, for one hour via Zoom/dial in, on selected Wednesdays with the Blind Sports and Recreation Victoria community. These sessions allow people who are blind or vision impaired to connect with others, test their music knowledge, have fun and maybe have a boogie or a sing along.
 
Alana is a multi-instrumentalist with over 30 years of performing experience. She honed her craft performing on the streets of Melbourne as a one-person-band, moving between flutes, pan-pipes, the recorder and other instruments.
 
Alana explores a wide variety of styles playing her main instrument, the acoustic guitar. As a performer, Alana has played to audiences both small and large, most notably as a regular band member of St Paul's Church where she specialises in contemporary worship tunes and traditional hymns. Outside of this, she enjoys creating musical arrangements and accompanying other singers.
 
In 2021, Alana was the recipient of Arts Access Victoria’s inaugural Music Makers mentorship program, working alongside rock singer, Hollie Joyce. Alana is currently focused on creating a musical repertoire that speaks to the depths of her life experiences.
