ItemNo Preview Available2021 Mimir Chamber Music Festival(Mimir Chamber Music Festival / www.mimirfestival.org, 2021)The Mimir 2021 festival was an international collaboration of musicians and students from three continents, including prominent performing artists from top performing ensembles and conservatories. Covid restrictions prevented international travel from Australia, and access to venues allowing live performances in North America was very limited. As a result, four pre-recorded concerts were streamed online for an international online audience. Two student groups representing the Sibelius Academy (Helsinki) and the DePaul School of Music received online and face to face coaching from Mimir Artists, presenting their own online performance recorded in Chicago and Helsinki. The concerts are listed below with the names and titles of the performers.

ItemNo Preview AvailableAustralian National Violin Conference(Faculty of Fine Arts and Music, The University of Melbourne / https://finearts-music.unimelb.edu.au/showcase/dorcas-mcclean-competition, 2022)The inaugural Australian National Violin Conference was held at the Ian Potter Southbank Centre over four days, from 10–13 February 2022. Bringing together musicians and scholars from around the country, its program began with lectures on several of Australia’s most renowned twentieth-century violinists by Dr Suzanne Robinson (University of Melbourne), Dr Goetz Richter AM (Sydney Conservatorium) in association with Dr Jeanell Carrigan AM (Sydney Conservatorium), Dr Kay Dreyfus (Monash University), Ibby Mikaljo (University of Western Australia) and Dr Curt Thompson (University of Melbourne). A presentation on the teaching and influence of Jan Sedivka by Keith Crellin OAM, including an interview with Elizabeth Morgan AM, was followed by a panel discussion involving several of his most prominent students: Kirsty Bremner, Sarah Curro, Peter Exton, Amanda Fairs, Trevor Jones and Cindy Watkin. Two additional sessions focused on Mozart and the violin, with presentations from Professor Cliff Eisen (King’s College London) on Mozart’s library and the significance of the violin to his career, from his early violin performances as a child prodigy to his employment as a violinist at the Salzburg court and later in Vienna. Running parallel to the conference, the program of the Dorcas McClean Travelling Scholarship for Violinists included masterclasses with distinguished guest artists Robert Davidovici (Artist-in-Residence ansd Professor or Violin at Florida International University, Miami) and Cho-Liang Lin (Benjamin Armistead Shepherd Distinguished Professor at Rice University, Houston), a guest artists recital and recitals by the scholarship’s semi-finalists. Altogether the conference was a landmark in the study of violinists, violin performance and violin culture in twentieth-century Australia, creating a pathway for future study and collaboration, and for ongoing cooperation and exchange between scholars, teachers, performers and students. https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=dorcas+mcclean+anvc&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
