Abstract

During the course of this creative PhD, I set out to address the following issues through the process of composing, performing and curating mixed projects: (1) the nature of collaboration as part of an artistic vision and output, (2) the role of the composer within these relationships, and (3) the scope for a career in writing music, as well as the accessibility and impact of performances. The nature of practice-based research - creating and reflecting upon my own musical works and those of others - builds an ever-evolving trajectory of my artistic awareness over the course of study. This development of artistic awareness informs the results of my conceptual, aesthetic, and technical considerations as a musician.
