Composers' Series, The - Volume 7 Piano Solos (Phillips)

By Linda Phillips

$55.00 Sale

 Linda Phillips (1899 - 2002)

19 piano solos composed, mostly previously unpublished.

The piano music of Linda Phillips reflects her character. It is energetic, encouraging for the performer and full of charisma, with clear and strong melodic lines. Many works reflect her cultural heritage and, though mostly composed diatonically, exploit Hebrew scales and Middle Eastern flavours.

Linda Phillips describes herself as moderately modern and similar to Samuel Barber in that it has a "between the wars lyricism".

Level of difficulty:  advanced grades


More comprehensive biographical notes are within the volume which also includes a CD of all the works.

Composing Against the Tide

By Jeanell Carrigan

$45.00 Sale

Early twentieth century Australian women composers and their piano music.

There were a relatively large number of women born in Australia between 1860 and 1915 who became composers of piano music. For many of them this was not an easy task. They did not always receive encouragement. Certainly many could not earn a living at this creative work and they battled not only the gender inequality that still largely exists today but also against musical fashion and trends that their works did not always reflect, as well as the backlash which came from being born into a ‘colonial’ country.  This is their story.

Australian Heritage Collection - the piano works of these women have been published in three volumes as researched and edited by Jeanell. Each volume contains a CD of the works within. 

A CD Nostalgia has been released with many of these works recorded by Jeanell.  It was featured as ABC Classic FM "CD of the week", November 2016.

Eli Zion

By Linda Phillips

$15.00 Sale

Violin and piano, c.3'00.  Advanced grade (8th)

Eli Zion is the last Jewish liturgical poem in the Ashkenazi collection of kinot (which means a collection of mournful poems) and is customarily sung in a recitative style by the whole community. In this poem the poet turns to Zion, likening her to a woman who has suffered both destructive and redemptive pain. Taken as a whole, the poem is a mournful call out to Zion to lament her tragic destruction. To conjure this mournful call, are the sounds of howling, weeping and sighing.” Phillips wrote this one movement work for violin and piano as a series of statements and refrains, almost like variations on the sung theme.
