Up to eight composers will have the chance to spend up to three hours with the quartet on their composition, in this, FQ’s inaugural composer workshop. The workshops will take place in Melbourne and will be open to the public, allowing aspiring composers to witness the creative process of other composers as well as demonstrating their own compositional development.

The quartet regularly commissions and premieres works by Australia composers, and considers the development and presentation of new works an essential part of its activity. FQ believes that in order to best serve the composers and to truly develop their compositional skills and personal voice, having a live, professional string quartet at their disposal is an invaluable tool.

  • Artist Biographies
    ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES Richard Gill AO | Artistic Director & Conductor in March 2019 Australian conductor and educator, Richard Gill, one of Australia's best-known and best-loved musical figures, is a significant and vital key member of ARCO. His career has taken him from teaching music in Sydney's western suburbs to Music Director of the Victorian Opera, Artistic Director of the Sydney Symphony Education Program, and along the way an involvement with almost every major opera company and orchestra in Australia. He is one of this country's pre-eminent conductors and a passionate advocate of music education. He specialises in opera, music theatre and vocal and choral training and his work in developing young musicians and creating opportunities for them is recognised world-wide. His appearances on the ABC’s “Spicks and Specks” and “Q&A” have made him a household name within and beyond Australia’s musical world. What truly distinguishes Richard is his passion and enthusiasm for spreading not just the joy of music, but its myriad benefits. He is Australia’s greatest musical educator, and many say one of the best in the world. His life's work - alongside his other roles - has been advocating music in our education system, and furthering the development of those who have gone on to choose music as a vocation. He brings music to life, and his knowledge and deep enjoyment of his subject is as inspiring and enlightening to a class of primary school students as it is to the cast of a major opera. The majority of Australia’s young contemporary professional musicians count Richard as a powerful influence on their musical development.

  • Spirit of the Plains
    Spirit of the Plains Bradley Kunda, GUITAR Laura van Rijn, FLUTE Spirit of the Plains (Bradley Kunda, 2015) I. Pan II. The West Wind III. Fantasy Spirit of the Plains is inspired by the paintings of Sydney Long (1871-1955). Long remains a unique voice in Australian art, particularly for his rendering of the Australian landscape in the European Art Nouveau style; he extends the branches of gum trees into flowing lines with sinuous curves, and he decorates the bush with mythical figures – fauns, nymphs and satyrs. Brolgas and magpies are enchanted by the flute, played by Pan, the Greek god of nature, shepherds, flocks, and pastoral music (Pan, 1989), or by a similarly evocative feminine spirit (The Spirit of the Plains, 1897/1914; The West Wind, 1909). The iconographic Art Nouveau image of spirited dancing girls with flowing dresses is a feature of Long’s work Fantasy (c. 1914), where the figures are engulfed by Long’s dreamy and imaginative depiction of trees and moonlight. The musical language of Spirit of the Plains for flute and guitar draws particularly on the French music of Long’s day, especially that of Maurice Ravel, whose meandering lines and lush textures are a fitting allusion to the Art Nouveau style. In the spirit of Long’s appropriation, however, this characteristic style is re-imagined through an Australian lens; the overtone-rich and colourful sound of the Australian classical guitar evokes its own harmonic and textural sound world, which pairs beautifully with Pan’s own instrument – the flute – in an Australian re-imagining of the musical and visual world of the fin de siecle.

I also certify that the thesis has been written by me. Any help that I have received in my research work and the preparation of the thesis itself has been acknowledged. In addition, I certify that all information sources and literature used are indicated in the thesis. Signature of Student: Date: 12 August 2014 3 INTRODUCTION Alf Pollard’s contribution to the business history of Australia is as yet unwritten—both as a biography of the man himself, but also his singular, albeit often quiet, achievements. He helped to shape the business world in which he operated and, in parallel, made outstanding contributions to Australian society. Cultural deprivation theory tells us that people who are working class have themselves to blame for the failure of their children in education1 and Alf was certainly from a low socio-economic, indeed extremely poor, family. He fitted such a child to the letter, although he later turned out to be an outstanding counter-example despite having no ‘built-in’ advantage as he not been socialised in a dominant wealthy culture.
