THE MUSIC OF LIZA LIM Price: $105; Members: $94.50 The music of Liza Lim is a new education resource from the Australian Music Centre, designed for senior secondary and early tertiary teaching. By looking at works written during a period when Lim was becoming increasingly engaged with Indigenous cultures, the resource discusses ways of exploring sound beyond traditional approaches to music writing, and shows how a composer integrates an understanding of something non-musical into a musical context. The material and resources are particularly suitable for: • Senior secondary and early tertiary study • HSC study - Australian Music of the last 25 years • VCE study - Music Investigation, Music Performance, and Music Style and Composition; particularly suitable for Music Style and Composition Unit 3, in examining contextual issues and Music Performance Units 3 and 4 Prepared by Kim Waldock, Head of Education for Sydney Symphony, The music of Liza Lim examines a range of Lim’s work, from the solo cello work Invisibility, through Songs found in dream for mixed chamber ensemble, to the full orchestral works The Compass, and Pearl, Ochre, Hair String - all works that exhibit strong influences from Indigenous and Aboriginal music making. The resource explores the compositional devices Lim uses to reflect these influences. Analyses of works includes elements of music and compositional devices such as instrumentation, tone colour, pitch, texture, structure, rhythm and dynamics. Exercises provided incorporate score reading and listening exercises to stimulate critical response and analysis from students, and includes a number of compositional exercises. Advanced performance practice issues are also discussed, such as extended performance techniques, notation, altered tuning and the use of microtones and multiphonics. Including sample scores and audio recordings, The music of Liza Lim also references a number of

It also explores the different ways that the composer has sought to ‘open-up’ the multiple tradition/s of both solo unaccompanied song, with its universal connotations of different folk and spiritual practices, and the ‘classical’ duo of voice and piano by introducing the clarinet, supremely Romantic in its lyrical shadowing of, and counterpoints to, the voice in Song 11 (1969-71) and Lord Melbourne (1980), and in an altogether more abrasive, even aggressive, way in the microtonal keenings and rantings of the rarely used and notoriously awkward C clarinet in Beuk O’ Newcassel Sangs (1988).

  • An Interview with Liza Lim Madeline Roycroft
    2017 © Madeline Roycroft, Context 42 (2017): 85–90. COMPOSER INTERVIEW The Ecology of Collaboration: An Interview with Liza Lim Madeline Roycroft Liza Lim is one of Australia’s leading composers. Born in Perth in 1966, she completed her BMus at the Victorian College of the Arts, MMus at the University of Melbourne and received her PhD from the University of Queensland. As Director of the Centre for Research in New Music at the University of Huddersfield from 2008–2017, Liza Lim established the highly regarded Divergence Press and CeReNeM Journals, as well as the Huddersfield Contempor- ary Records label. Now based in Melbourne, she maintains a part-time role at Huddersfield and from 2017 is Professor of Composition at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. She is also Visiting Professor of Composition at the Shanghai Conservatory during 2017. Lim has been commissioned by some of the world’s pre-eminent orchestras, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic, BBC Symphony, and Bavarian Radio Orchestra, and she was composer in residence with the Sydney Symphony from 2005–2007. She has collaborated with ensembles such as MusikFabrik, Ensemble Intercontemporain and Ensemble Modern, and has been particularly associated with the ELISION Ensemble since the group’s inception. Lim has composed three operas: The Oresteia (1993), Moon Spirit Feasting (1999) and The Navigator (2008), all of which ELISION have performed in seasons across Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, 85 86 Context 42 (2017) Tokyo, Moscow, Paris, Zurich and Berlin. Her fourth opera, Tree of Codes (2015), commissioned and presented by Cologne Opera, Musikfabrik and Hellerau in Cologne and Dresden, was described as ‘a major contribution to the music theatre of our time.’ Liza Lim connects her compositional practice to areas of thought and knowledge such as Australian Indigenous aesthetics, Asian ritual forms, Sufi poetics, and the textilic arts of weaving and knot-making.
