    An Australian Composer Abroad: Malcolm Williamson and the projection of an Australian Identity by Carolyn Philpott B.Mus. (Hons.) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Conservatorium of Music University of Tasmania October 2010 Declaration of Originality This dissertation contains no material that has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University of Tasmania or any other institution, except by way of background information that is duly acknowledged in the text. I declare that this dissertation is my own work and to the best of my knowledge it contains no material previously published or written by another person except where clear acknowledgement or reference is made in the text, nor does it contain any material that infringes copyright. This dissertation may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Carolyn Philpott Date ii Abstract Malcolm Williamson (1931-2003) was one of the most successful Australian composers of the latter half of the twentieth century and the depth, breadth and diversity of his achievements are largely related to his decision to leave Australia for Britain in the early 1950s. By the 1960s, he was commonly referred to as the “most commissioned composer in Britain” and in 1975 he was appointed to the esteemed post of Master of the Queen’s Music. While his service to music in Britain is generally acknowledged in the literature, the extent of his contribution to Australian music is not widely recognised and this is the first research to be undertaken with a strong focus on the identification and examination of the many works he composed for his homeland and his projection of an Australian identity through his music and persona.
