    Associate Professor Robert Burke Curriculum vitae 2018 Personal Details Full name: Associate Professor Robert Louis Burke Current position: Convenor of Jazz and Popular Music Department/ Monash University School/ Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music Faculty/Division: Faculty of Arts Correspondence address: 14 Albert St Caulfield North 3161 Email address: [email protected] ABOUT In 2002, Rob Burke instigated, launched and is currently the Convenor of Jazz and Popular Studies at Monash University (Melbourne Australia). Rob recognised an unfulfilled need in Melbourne's jazz academic landscape, established its course curriculum and provided a clear pathway for musicians to develop their proficiency and aptitude for their academic and performance outcomes. His background as a classically educated musician also enables him to traverse many musical genres and he is in a unique position to speak to students and colleagues about their requirements/concerns and provide balanced outcomes. His ongoing research focuses on issues relating to how we respond to improvised jazz: artistically, critically and personally. His work includes studying the processes and outcomes of music participation and music listening. An internationally acclaimed performer and composer, Rob has released 12 CD's under his own name and has composed and performed on a further 300 CD's. His sensitive and balanced perspective has allowed Rob to traverse many different styles and this has, in part, been expressed as collaborative performances with international leaders in classical, jazz and experimental music. His embrace of many genres of music and the clear expression of his diversity in his role as an educator, researcher and performer, has given rise to a vibrant dialect that resonates through his students and also his performances.

He quickly Matt Penman – bass became involved in the formation of a loose collective of improvising musicians who were into experimenting and playing each other’s music, as well as different folk musics including Balkan and Eastern European musics. Out of this environment was born many groups that Shepik continues to perform with today including the Tiny Bell Trio 1992, Paradox Trio 1992, Pachora 1993, and BABKAS 1992–8. In 1991 Bill Frisell recommended Shepik to Paul Motion for his Electric Be Bop Band which Shepik toured and recorded with for five years. “Shepik’s got the mind of a pioneer.The rhythmic complexity of his compositions has few parallels in jazz – or any other genre,for that matter.With all his exotic influences, and all his different axes,he makes us rethink what it means to be a guitarist and a musician.There’s no telling where he’ll go next.” allaboutjazz.com Iconoclastic and prolific jazz-rock guitarist David ‘Fuze’ Fiuczynski, a jazz player who “doesn’t want to Thursday November 18 The Wardrobe £12/10 play just jazz”, has been hailed by the world press as an incredibly inventive guitar hero, who continues Screaming Headless Torsos to deliver with music that is unclassifiable, challenging and invigorating.

  • Addendum About the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz & Blues

    Addendum About the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz & Blues

    Submission to the Senate Enquiry on the Impact of the 2014 and 2015 Commonwealth Budget decisions on the Arts Submitted by Paul Squires, Chair, on behalf of the Board of Wangaratta Festival of Jazz Inc. Summary This submission expresses our concerns about the Commonwealth budget in 2014 and 2015, as it relates to our festival specifically; and expresses our concerns on behalf of the Australian jazz sector on the whole. In brief, our concern is that the cuts in funding for the Arts in the Commonwealth budget in 2014 and 2015, and some of the associated or consequent outcomes, could have a number of serious adverse consequences. The most significant of these is the reduced opportunities for developing excellence in the Australian Jazz and Blues sector, which consists entirely of small to medium organisations, individuals and emerging artists (those most adversely impacted by the cuts), whom our festival depends on to produce artistic excellence during our festival. As the foremost platform for Australian Jazz and Blues music, we need certainty of funding for multi-year operational support so that we can continue to develop and showcase Australia’s reputation for excellence in these art forms, and contribute between $3 and $5 million annually to our local regional economy. wangarattajazz.com.au 1 PO Box 860 Wangaratta VIC 3677 03 5722 1666 Key Issues We urge the Senate to re-examine the budget allocation to the Australia Council in 2014 and 2015, to consider whether a significant budget increase ought to be a priority; and to consider the following key issues for our organisation and the wider sector: 1.
