Composing Australia: Nostalgia and National Identity in the Music of Malcolm Williamson
Author: Carolyn Philpott
Publisher: Lyrebird Press lyrebirdpress.music.unimelb.edu.au
ISBN: 0734037899
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Brilliant, provocative, compassionate—the composer Malcolm Williamson was one of Australia’s most famous expatriates. As Carolyn Philpott explains, his nostalgia for his homeland lasted fifty years, from his emigration in 1953 until his death in 2003. In works such as the ballet The Display, Symphony no. 6 and The Dawn Is at Hand, he explored inventive ways of expressing his Australian identity, collaborating with Australian artists, paying homage to Australian musicians and exposing his sorrow for the treatment of Indigenous peoples. As the first book-length examination of Williamson’s music, Composing Australia is a portrait of an intriguing and always imaginative Australian.
