ItemNight Pieces: Reflections After COVID-19, for soprano saxophone and pianoKouvaras, L (Australian Music Centre, 2021-02-01)Night Pieces: Reflections After COVID-19 is a series of musical vignettes, meditating on the myriad experiences marking this year of global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 has graphed new heights and depths for us all collectively and individually. My aunt was prematurely taken from us, succumbing to the disease in her aged care facility. We have all reeled at the widespread - and growing number of - deaths and suffering it has caused. The world has polarised, and come together, over associated issues to do with loss, reaction to government action, societal re-structures in day-to-day life, lockdowns, regaining of freedom, human connection, fear, grief and hope. In this work, Night Pieces: Reflections After Covid-19 for saxophone and piano, I wanted to encapsulate in musical rendering some of my own responses - insights and emotive reactions, that are made more acute during the quiet of the night - to the roller-coaster of the year 2020. The fourth movement, Elegy, is an arrangement of a movement, An Elegy, from … to enter the dream that includes all dreams, composed for SATB Choir and Piano in 2002 and also arranged as a solo song for Soprano and Piano, to highlight the connection of grief to past events of loss.

ItemNo Preview AvailableWhen only the walls can singPollard, M (Museums and Collections, University of Melbourne, 2021)This project is part of an ongoing collaborative research project titled Reconstructing the familiar that addresses the sonic possibilities of making the familiar, unfamiliar. This project resulted in the new music work When only the walls can sing for vibraphone, prerecorded sound and 20 blue tooth speakers. This research involved a creative condensing of the sympathetic resonances of music performances from times past. Music moments drawn from the first concert programs at the University of Melbourne in 1896 and VCA in 1974 are reconstructed to create a new music work that transformed the experience of a particular space and place. This new work enhanced the viewers’ interpretation and understanding of the intent and history of the location and the surrounds by inviting them to experience the resonating space of the location, architecture and music function in multiple and innovative ways.
