Product details
This CD represents new music from three distant areas - East
Europe, North Asia and Australasia. For many decades Romanian,
Korean and Australian musical voices have been mapping out their
cultural identities in relative isolation. Romanian composers
were cocooned from the wider musical community due to their
country's repressive communist regime. Korean composers only
reconnected with their musical roots in the 1960s after the years
of Japanese occupation in the earlier part of the twentieth
century. Australian composers, while not enduring political
constraints, were geographically isolated from the main
activities in Europe and America.
While the music contained in this recording might not branch too
far from a European musical epicentre, they do demonstrate the
bridges that have been built by the academic staff and
postgraduate students at the School of Music-Conservatorium at
Monash University, and their colleagues in other parts of
Australia, Korea and Romania. At the present time, music from
Australia, Korea and Romania forms a significant part of the
musicological and performance-based research activity within the
School. This CD therefore constitutes a tangible research outcome
for the School and highlights the strengthened individual
intersections that have been developed between musicians,
composers and musicologists rather than the reinforcement of any
globalised cultural world view.
Duration: 67 min.
Liner notes include an introduction by Joel Crotty, programme notes and notes on the composers and performers.
