Funded Activity Summary

Sound Footings: creating a web-based research infrastructure of major music archives. Sound Footings caters equally for scholars and the general music-loving public through its link with MusicAustralia - the National Library's online resource discovery and delivery service. This project will enable all Australians to share the unique resources of the Eileen Joyce Collection and the Archive of Australian and Asian Music through universal online access. Sound Footings will facilitate research in significant new areas, nourish greater awareness of Australia's musical and cultural heritage, including our musical and cultural relation to the Asian region, and add a valuable dimension to the understanding of multicultural Australia through the music of its immigrant communities.
