  • John Cage Sonatas & Interludes
    ZUBIN KANGA JOHN CAGE SONATAS & INTERLUDES Wednesday 12 October 6pm | Salon Presented by Melbourne Recital Centre in association with Melbourne Festival ARTIST Zubin Kanga, solo piano PROGRAM John Cage (1912–1992) Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano (1946–1948) Sonata I Sonata II Sonata III Sonata IV First Interlude Sonata V Sonata VI Sonata VII Sonata VIII Second Interlude Third Interlude Sonata IX Sonata X Sonata XI Sonata XII Fourth Interlude Sonata XIII Sonata XIV and XV (“Gemini” – after the work by Richard Lippold) Sonata XVI ABOUT THE MUSIC John Cage towers over modern American music as one of its most original musical voices, and most influential iconoclasts. Cage’s music spans many styles and approaches, from his work with chance operations (using dice and the Chinese ‘Book of Changes’, the I Ching) to his many collaborations with dancers and choreographers including his partner, Merce Cunningham, to his experimentation with graphic notation. Perhaps his most famous work is 4’33” (1948). Consisting of four minutes and 33 seconds of silence, it’s often unfairly used as the punchline for jokes about experimental music, though it deserves to be seen as Cage intended it – as a deeply profound exploration of the rituals of performance and the intensity of performed silence: two obsessions that can be found throughout his oeuvre. One of Cage’s most significant innovations was his radical expansion of the ‘prepared piano’. Although he was not the first to stick objects between the strings of a piano to alter its sound, the extent and complexity of preparations that Cage developed set a new benchmark which has rarely been surpassed.

  • Australasian Music at Home and Abroad
    43RD ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE AUSTRALASIAN MUSICOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AUSTRALIA MUSIC AT HOSTED BY THE MELBOURNE CONSERVATORIUM HOME AND OF MUSIC CELEBRATING ITS 125TH ANNIVERSARY ABROAD 3 – 5 December 2020 0 WELCOME 2020 marks 125 years since the establishment of the Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne. We are delighted that the MSA has allowed us to link our celebration of this event with the 43rd MSA national conference, in conjunction with the 19th Symposium on Indigenous Music and Dance. Our initial projected grand celebrations have necessarily had to be curtailed because of COVID and sadly we are not able to physically showcase the splendour of our new building to musicologists and ethnomusicologists across the country and indeed the world. But this current online conference is still a very special event for us, which truly marks our history (a history which is directly addressed by our two wonderful keynotes) and more generally contextualises our history by its theme, Australasian Music Making: At Home and Abroad. We have an exciting programme with outstanding scholars from across Australia, New Zealand and the world, addressing many different aspects of our theme, and beyond. I am sure that wherever you are watching you will thoroughly enjoy the conference. – Kerry Murphy, Convenor I am delighted to welcome you to the 43rd National Conference of the Musicological Society of Australia, held in conjunction with the 19th Symposium on Indigenous Music and Dance. I am also thrilled that the aforementioned events offer us all the opportunity to celebrate the 125 years since the founding of the Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne.

  • Kanga, Z 2014, 'Not Music Yet: Graphic Notation As a Catalyst for Collaborative Metamorphosis'
    Kanga, Z 2014, ‘Not Music Yet: Graphic Notation as a Catalyst for Collaborative Metamorphosis’, Eras, vol. 16, no.1, pp.37-58 http://artsonline.monash.edu.au/eras/ “Not Music Yet”: Graphic Notation as a Catalyst for Collaborative Metamorphosis Zubin Kanga (Royal Academy of Music, London & University of Nice Sophia Antipolis)1 Abstract | In the past five years the collaborative relationship between composer and performer has emerged as an important field of enquiry. Challenging the assumptions of distinct roles and creativity in solitude, recent research publications by Östersjö, Clarke/Cook/Harrison/Thomas, Roche, Hayden/Windsor and Heyde/Fitch have examined their own creative practices to explore many different models of collaborative relationships. The author’s doctoral research in this field examined the collaborations on ten new works for solo piano, one of which is the graphically notated score, Not Music Yet (2012), by Australian composer, David Young. This article explores how Young’s use of graphic notation alongside symbiotic collaborative strategies catalysed a metamorphosis of the collaborative process. In 2011, the author, a concert pianist, commissioned Young to compose a new work for solo piano. Young’s decision to notate the score as a large watercolour painting served as both a point of resistance and a catalyst in the collaborative process. The article examines Young’s strategies of managing and manipulating the author’s interpretation, while affording the author control over fundamental compositional decisions. The author’s process of creating a performable realisation of the score – utilising sonic and pianistic experimentation with a wide variety of extended techniques – is also examined.

The duration is around 3 minutes and the ambitious dedication is “to everyone involved with 20th Century Music”. Tim Parkinson gave the first performance at St Cyprian’s Church in London on 15th March 2000. soundcloud.com/laurence-crane Tim Parkinson – 2 0 1 6 N o . 1 ( 2 0 1 6 ) 2016 No.1 was the first piece I made in 2016. It was followed by a string quartet, and six more short piano pieces before the end of the year; No.2, No.3, No.4, No.5, No.6 and Last Piece. Writing a piece for piano after 250 years of piano music seems to me an immense challenge. My excuse is that I am alive. www.untitledwebsite.com Bryn Harrison – Piano Set (Six Miniatures) ( 2 0 0 5 ) Piano Set (Six Miniatures) derives its materials from a short study entitled “Flower’s Fall” that was commissioned by Clive Williamson for the Guildford Festival in 2005. I subsequently extended the piece into six short miniatures which were first performed by Mary Dullea at the Warehouse, London on the 12th November 2005. The piece seeks to raise perceptual questions as to how events change over time. It is dedicated to Annette Morreau. www.brynharrison.com Nicholas Peters – C u b e ( 2 0 1 7 ) Cube explores the idea of moving through different sized spaces and how the size of a space can affect us, for example feeling trapped and claustrophobic in a small confined space.

  • Wiki-Piano: Examining the Crowd-Sourced Composition of a Continuously Changing Internet-Based Score
    6 TEMPO 74 (294) 6–22 © 2020 Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S0040298220000352 WIKI-PIANO: EXAMINING THE CROWD-SOURCED COMPOSITION OF A CONTINUOUSLY CHANGING INTERNET-BASED SCORE Zubin Kanga ABSTRACT: Alexander Schubert’s WIKI-PIANO.NET is an inter- net-based score, commissioned by the author and performed by him on an international tour from 2018 to 2020. The website score contains modules of notation, text, images, video and sound that can be edited by any member of the public, similar to a Wikipedia page. This article explores the huge volume and variety of content added to the score over the first 20 months after the premiere, and the extreme compositional approaches and unusual patterns of internet behaviour displayed. Examining these contributions offers insights into the online culture of new music, including its approaches to humour, its creative competi- tiveness, its mastery of memes, and its sophisticated subversions of the relationship between composer, performer and audience. WIKI-PIANO.NET is an internet-based score created by Alexander Schubert, which I commissioned and premiered in April 2018, and subsequently toured to (so far) 21 venues.1 The score is a website that, like a Wikipedia article, can be edited by any member of the pub- lic. This article explores the huge volume and variety of content added to the score over the first 20 months after the premiere and the extreme compositional approaches and unusual patterns of internet behaviour displayed, including embedded personal signatures, absurd material, political content, many types of memes, personal messages, references to other composers, explicit content, meta-content, and the opposing behaviours of trolling and collaborative cooperation.
