Renberg Few sites in the Greco-Roman world provide a more richly varied set of documents attesting to the importance of dreams in personal religion than the cluster of religious complexes situated on the Saqqâra bluff west of Memphis.2 The area consists primarily of temples and sacred animal necropoleis linked to several cults, most notably the famous Sarapeum complex,3 and has produced inscriptions, papyri and ostraka that cite or even recount dreams received by various individuals, while literary sources preserved on papyrus likewise contain descriptions of god-sent dreams received there.4 The abundant evidence for dreams and dreamers at Saqqâra, as well as the evidence for at least one conventional oracle at the site,5 has led to the understandable assumption that incubation was commonly practiced there.6 However, 1 Acknowledgements: In addition to those who attended the presentation of this paper at the Congress of Papyrology, I would like to thank Dorothy J. Thompson and Richard Jasnow for sharing their insights on this subject. 2 The subject discussed in this article will be dealt with more fully in a book now in preparation, tentatively entitled Where Dreams May Come: Incubation Sanctuaries in the Greco-Roman World. 3 On Saqqâra and its religious life, see especially UPZ I, pp. 7–95 and Thompson 1988 (with references to earlier studies); cf.

    BRUCE CALE, SERIALISM AND THE LYDIAN CONCEPT by Eric Myers* ____________________________________________________ [This article appeared in the October, 1985 edition of APRA, the magazine of the Australasian Performing Right Association.] hen the Australia** Music Centre's film on Australian composers Notes On A Landscape came out in 1980, it was apparent that most of the ten W composers included, picked themselves: Don Banks, Anne Boyd, Colin Brumby, Barry Conyngham, Keith Humble, Elena Kats, Graeme Koehne, Richard Meale, Peter Sculthorpe. In addition to them, there was one composer who, on the face of it, might not have been regarded as such an automatic choice: Bruce Cale. Bruce Cale on the verandah of his house in the Blue Mountains, with his dog Muffin… PHOTO CREDIT MARGARET SULLIVAN __________________________________________________________________ *When this was written in October, 1985, Eric Myers was editor of the Australian Jazz Magazine, and writing jazz reviews for The Australian. **Australia Music Centre was at the time the correct spelling. Sometime later ‘Australia’ was changed to ‘Australian’. 1 After all, he was principally known as a jazz composer and performer, and when the film was planned, had been back in Australia only two years, following 13 years in Britain and the United States. On the other hand, there were some eyebrows raised in the Australian jazz world that Cale was "the only jazz composer" included in the film. But those who were aware of Cale's work knew that he had been included because of his orchestral writing as well as his jazz composition; his work had certainly emerged from jazz but, in a highly individual way, he was seeking to merge jazz and classical traditions.
