This book was released on 2012-01-17 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is volume 1 of a 4 volume series, the first 3 of which have been published by Xlibris and the 4th almost complete for imminent delivery. In its entirety this work is the most comprehensive and accurate account of Australian Classical Music making ever undertaken. The 4 volumes cover the period from 1901-2012 and include more than 800 composers, famous and obscure, with more than 30,000 compositions including details of their premieres (where, when and by whom). Individual performers, ensembles, orchestras, opera and ballet companies, music educators, instrument makers, entrepreneurs, academics, philanthropists, musicologists and critics are included as part of the story. The foundation and demise of music institutions, venues and festivals is recorded chronologically. Altogether an extensive picture of Australian Classical Music production and performance can be gleaned in any given year. This book is distinct insofar as it can be read conventionally (from cover to cover): or one may choose a composer/performer and follow his/her career year by year; or one may open the book at random and delight in the unusual and esoteric information therein. This book, and its companion volumes are valuable and indispensible works for the serious music student, professional musician, performing amateur, cultural aficionado and inquisitive lay person and should be in the library of every reputable music conservatorium worldwide.

Download or read book A Chronological History of Australian Composers and Their Compositions written by Stephen Pleskun and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No chronological history of music can be complete. Even an extensive biography of a single composer will have details missing, withheld, or unavailable; scores undated, works lost or destroyed, personal and educational experiences forgotten or overlooked, and memoirs selective. When one deals with hundreds of composers, these same problems are multiplied manifold. A Chronological History Of Australian Composers And Their Compositions by Stephen Pleskun, is the first of a three-volume series that puts into historical perspective the works and experiences of generations of composers and their compatriots. It attempts to recount the history of classical music in Australia from the time it was proclaimed a Commonwealth (1901). The author s purpose is to reveal in as much detail as possible the classical music making activities of those involved in any given year. Pleskun focuses on composers and their compositions, the bulk of which is covered in A Chronological History Of Australian Composers And Their Compositions. However, composers do not exist in isolation, nor do they compose works purely for self-gratification. Thus, Pleskun has included in their stories the performers, educators, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, and administrators who have played crucial parts in bringing aural visions to life and hence are an indispensable part of the music scene.

Download or read book Collaborative Creative Thought and Practice in Music written by Margaret S. Barrett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of the individual creator, a product in part of the Western romantic ideal, is now troubled by accounts and explanations of creativity as a social construct. While in collectivist cultures the assimilation (but not the denial) of individual authorship into the complexities of group production and benefit has been a feature, the notion of the lone individual creator has been persistent. Systems theories acknowledge the role of others, yet at heart these are still individual views of creativity - focusing on the creative individual drawing upon the work of others rather than recognizing the mutually constitutive elements of social interactions across time and space. Focusing on the domain of music, the approach taken in this book falls into three sections: investigations of the people, processes, products, and places of collaborative creativity in compositional thought and practice; explorations of the ways in which creative collaboration provides a means of crossing boundaries between disciplines such as music performance and musicology; and studies of the emergence of creative thought and practice in educational contexts including that of the composer and the classroom. The volume concludes with an extended chapter that reflects on the ways in which the studies reported advance understandings of creative thought and practice. The book provides new perspectives to our understandings of the role of collaborative thought and processes in creative work across the domain of music including: composition, musicology, performance, music education and music psychology.
