Creative Research in Music explores what it means to be an artistic researcher in music in the twenty-first century. The book delineates the myriad processes that underpin successful artistic research in music, providing best practice exemplars ranging from Western classical art to local indigenous traditions, and from small to large-scale, multi-media and cross-cultural work formats. Drawing on the richness of creative research work at key institutions in South-East Asia and Australian, this book examines the social, political, historical and cultural driving forces that spur and inspire excellence in creative research to extend and to cross boundaries, to sustain our music industry, to advocate for the importance of music in our world, and to make it clear that music matters. In the chapters, our authors present the ideas of informed practice, innovation and transcendence from diverse international perspectives. Each of these three themes has an introductory section where the theme is explored and the chapters in that section introduced. Taken as a whole, the book discusses how the themes in combination, with reference to the authorial group, are able to transform music pedagogy and performance for our global and complex world.

Piano literature written post-1970 in Australia demonstrates similar trends obvious in contemporary composition evident in other countries. By examining this literature we can discover directions that influenced composers of the later part of this century. This study concentrates on compositions for solo piano by Australian composers written between 1970 and 1998. It firstly surveys the available teaching and concert performance repertoire, primarily dealing with stylistic trends.Secondly it discusses contemporary innovations in piano writing relating to the Australian repertoire. This includes a discussion of possible difficulties encountered when performing the works. Basic musical concepts such as notation, rhythm, harmonic language, articulation and technical difficulties, and contemporary effects are examined. One of the aims is to provide a practical approach to the repertoire for those performers, including teachers and students, who may be unfamiliar with the literature available and with some of the musical elements inherent in scores composed after 1970.
