9:30 Celebrating Lilburn

As part of the nationwide celebrations for Lilburn100, the Auckland University School of Music invited NZTrio to present the winning works from their inaugural composition competition for tertiary students. This competition was open to student composers from around the country. A total of 41 scores were submitted to the competition, from which 10 winning works were selected. All works were inspired in some way by the work or life of Douglas Lilburn. (Recorded at University of Auckland Music Theatre by RNZ)

Works For Loudspeakers is a quarterly listening party showcasing emerging and established composers. Every edition is different, and curated to give a platform for non-performative sound-based composition - music that would usually not have a public outlet. The audience is given an opportunity to exercise close listening in a friendly environment.
