Funded Activity Summary

Artistic signatures in violin playing on sound recordings: What makes the performance of a prominent violinist recognizable and legendary? The project's comprehensive account of performance styles in the age of recording will provide significant new knowledge in several respects: The examination of the relationship between the record industry and classical music practitioners will inform about cultural responsibilities, changing taste and the impact of technology on art. The systematic analyses of renowned violinists' (including two Australians') recordings will demonstrate the richness and diversity of valid artistic approaches to standard pieces. This will encourage emerging talent to explore the full gamut of expressive and technical means in creating unique and convincing interpretations to invigorate the appeal of classical music in Australia.
