Australiana

Drawing its inspiration from 'the land down under' and featuring quotations from the traditional Australian tunes 'Waltzing Matilda,' 'Bound for South Australia,' and 'Advance Australia Fair' in a glorious overture-style medley, this composition salutes the spirit, diversity, and proud heritage of the people of Australia. The musical emotions alternate between the hauntingly beautiful, reverent themes and the joyous, even raucous, folk tunes building to a glorious conclusion. (3:30) / Concert Band

First gaining prominence in Australia in the 1970s as a composer of music for dance Carl Vine has 25 dance scores to his credit. His catalogue also includes seven symphonies eight concertos music for film television and theatre electronic music and numerous chamber works. Although primarily a composer of modern 'classical' music he has undertaken tasks as diverse as arranging the Australian National Anthem and writing music forthe Closing Ceremony of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics (the 'Sydney 2000' presentation).This complex and challenging Piano Sonata was composed by Vine for the Sydney Dance Company in 1991. It isdedicated to the Australian pianist Michael Kieran Harvey who first performed the piece in North Melbourne in June 1991.The music is full of rich chordal movements unusual flowing harmonies and tonalities with greatextremes of dynamic and energy. Reflecting the physical origins of the piece as a dance the music is dotted with very strict changes of tempo which require exact adherence rather than the Rubato approach that typifies many Pianointerpretations.

Par VINE CARL. Composed for Emmanuel Pahud and the Australian Chamber Orchestra, this mesmerizing 14-minute concerto for flute and strings from 2003 has also been recorded by Sharon Bezaly on BIS. Pipe Dreams follows one of Vine’s preferred architectures: a single movement with three sections in the classic ‘moderate-slow-fast’ form. Although the solo lines are unashamedly virtuosic, the composer states that his intention was ‘not to dazzle but to explore as much dreaminess as possible, filtered through the wilfulness of a metal pipe which believes it has no limits’. ‘A haunting central passage provided a satisfying emotional counterweight to the scintillating brilliance of the outer sections.’ The Australian (Murray Black), 19 October 2009 / Instrumental Music / Répertoire / Flûte Traversière et Piano
