Title A name given to the resource Newspaper clipping of Karlheinz Stockhausen in Australia, 1970 Subject The topic of the resource Electronic Music Description An account of the resource German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen visited Australia for ten days in April 1970. He gave concert-lectures on electronic music around the country, including three programs in Wilson Hall, at the University of Melbourne. Delivered through a battery of speakers, Stockhausen’s electronic music ‘transformed Wilson Hall into a vast and sometimes terrifying acoustic cave’, according to a local newspaper. Performances included his Telemusik (1966). The Grainger Centre electronic music enthusiasts, including Keith Humble, Ian Bonighton and Agnes Dodds, helped set up Wilson Hall with the electronic equipment. Stockhausen was apparently very demanding, and Wilson Hall was not the ideal venue, with not enough powerpoints for all the equipment.

Title A name given to the resource Percy Grainger, 1904 Subject The topic of the resource Objects of Fame: Nellie Melba and Percy Grainger Description An account of the resource Paris-based Australian painter, Rupert Bunny, was commissioned by Percy Grainger to paint this portrait in the first few years of the young musician’s professional career.

Bunny had painted a full-length portrait of her a few years earlier. Artist Jacques-Émile Blanche, a friend of Bunny, described meeting Grainger in 1902. ‘Stupified’ by the encounter, Blanche characterised Grainger as a ‘steely-eyed archangel with the most admirable profile, a lopsided mouth, red as a cactus, and golden hair’.
