Australian composers.
This fifth programme about new works by Australian composers is completely dedicated to Christine McCombe and her latest work: Three Kinds of Silence.
It is minimal music in a different way. In all four works, silence is used as a musical parametre (to be compared with the Japanese concept of ‘ma’. The silences are just as important as the music.)
