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.

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.
