SUMMARY:Fallen Light
DESCRIPTION:After two wonderfully successful concerts in Sydney in March where Johanna Selleck teamed up with pianist Sumiko Yamamura and premiered three new works* for flute and piano it seemed logical\, indeed essential to perform those works again and expand the concert to include some other leading composers and performers from Melbourne. \nThe compositions for trumpet and guitar are from the repertoire that Joel Brennan and Ken Murray premiered in Albania & Kosovo in 2024. \nPianist Kevin Tamanini is the soloist in Don’t Go Through that Door by Colin McKellar as well as working with Selleck in four flute and piano works. \nJohanna Selleck        flute \nKevin Tamanini      piano  \nJoel Brennan           trumpet \nKen Murray                guitar              \nFlute and piano \nJohanna Selleck      Earth to Air\, Tolling of the Bells \nHoward Dillon        Arioso \nAlan Holley             Somnial \nPaul Moulatlet       Solastalgia   \nSolo flute  \nAndrián Pertout   Echoes from the Past  \nSolo piano  \nColin McKellar       Don’t Go Through that Door \nTrumpet & guitar                                                                                \nJohanna Selleck      Spiel \nAlan Holley              Fallen Light  \nKen Murray             Figbird & Torresian Crow               \nFriday May 23\, 7pm \nChurch of All Nations\, Carlton. 180 Palmerston St.\, Carlton \nTickets   $35 & $25 \nBookings 0428143646 \nalanholleyconcerts@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Astra Chamber Choir: Julius Eastman - Gay Guerrilla
DESCRIPTION:Julius Eastman: Gay Guerrilla \nWhat I am trying to achieve is to be what I am to the fullest – black to the fullest\, a musician to the fullest\, and a homosexual to the fullest.\n– Julius Eastman  \nPeter Dumsday\, Joy Lee\, Georgina Lewis\, Christopher Nankervis\, pianos\nJudith Dodsworth\, voice\nsingers from The Astra Choir\ndirected by Andrew Byrne \nProgram:\nEVIL N*****  (1979)\, four pianos (Australian premiere)\nPRELUDE TO THE HOLY PRESENCE OF JOAN D’ARC (1981)\,  solo voice\nJOY BOY (1974)\, voices and high instruments (Australian premiere)\nGAY GUERRILLA (1979)\, four pianos (Australian premiere) \nJulius Eastman (1940-90) is increasingly recognised as one of visionary composers of 20th-century music. As a gay Black man\, Eastman faced exclusion and even hostility from multiple sides in the US musical community. However\, he channelled that adversity into a music language of searing intensity. \nEastman’s music is a bold fusion of the avant-garde and political activism. His works bear provocative titles like Evil N***** and Gay Guerrilla\,  defiantly affirming his identity as an African-American and as a gay man. Yet it is Eastman’s gripping\, propulsive musical language\, combining minimalism with punk sensibility\, that commands attention. \nIn recent years\, interest in Eastman’s work has surged after a period of obscurity following his untimely death. This concert marks the Australian premiere of several of his significant compositions\, offering audiences an opportunity to experience the raw power and emotional depth of Eastman’s music.  \nSaturday 3 August\, 7:00 pm \n180 Palmerston St\, Carlton VIC 3053Map \nTickets: $35\, concession $20 \nThe Saturday evening performance is SOLD OUT. \nDue to popular demand\, Astra is presenting an additional performance of Gay Guerrilla on\nSUNDAY AUGUST 4 at 5PM.
