Title A name given to the resource Box percussion instruments created for the Australian Percussion Ensemble, c.1974 Description An account of the resource Box percussion instruments created by John Seal were used by each APE member in a variety of performances. For the performance of John Seal’s Structures at the Melbourne International Festival of Organ and Harpsichord at St Peter’s Church, East Melbourne, in 1974, the box percussion instruments were arranged in a symbolic cross formation. In Structures, performers are free to choose instrumentation, register and tempi. For the concert at St Peter’s Church, Structures was performed as a fugue in the manner of American composer Steve Reich, with each percussion player in the ensemble equipped with headphones delivering a click-track to maintain the musical structure.

Title A name given to the resource Newspaper clipping, John Sinclair, 'Sound in its fury', about Karlheinz Stockhausen, Melbourne Herald, 1970 Subject The topic of the resource Electronic music Description An account of the resource German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928–2007), described as the ‘most controversial musical innovator of our time’, has influenced many musicians, inside and outside of the avant-garde music scene. Rock musicians including Frank Zappa, Peter Townshend, Jerry Garcia and Björk, and Jazz musicians including Miles Davis, George Russell, Anthony Braxton and Charles Mingus, all name Stockhausen as a major influence. The Beatles included a portrait of Stockhausen on the front cover of their album, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, in 1967. 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 John Sinclair, Sound in its fury, Melbourne Herald, and two unidentified newspaper clippings, 1970 Subject The topic of the resource John Sinclair, Sound in its fury, Melbourne Herald, and two unidentified newspaper clippings, 1970 Description An account of the resource John Sinclair, Sound in its fury, Melbourne Herald, and two unidentified newspaper clippings, 1970 German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928–2007), described as the ‘most controversial musical innovator of our time’, has influenced many musicians, inside and outside of the avant-garde music scene. Rock musicians including Frank Zappa, Peter Townshend, Jerry Garcia and Björk, and Jazz musicians including Miles Davis, George Russell, Anthony Braxton and Charles Mingus, all name Stockhausen as a major influence. The Beatles included a portrait of Stockhausen on the front cover of their album, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, in 1967. 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’. 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 of the equipment. For the first composers of electronic music, there was a tension between the creation of new sounds never heard before in a musical context, and the necessity to represent these in a way that future musicians could interpret for performance or study. Graphic scores, such as Stockhausen’s Kontakte are examples of the creative solutions that composers invented for this purpose. Traditional notation systems were replaced by graphic elements, such as undulating lines or circling points, shapes such as squares and rectangles filled with tone, or even colour. Graphic scores were also useful for representing ‘chance’ music, overcoming of the concept of duration by leaving the ordering of different passages indeterminate. American composer Morton Feldman, who spent most of his career trying to erase any sense of metre from his music, used graphic scores in order to make time “less perceptible as movement, more conceivable as image”.

Title A name given to the resource Synthi 100 Subject The topic of the resource EMS Synthi 100 Description An account of the resource This photograph was taken of the EMS Synthi 100 in 2017, in its current home at the Victorian College of the Arts, University of Melbourne. This instrument was originally part of the Grainger Electronic Music Studio. The Synthi 100 used new oscillator and filter components and was more stable than its predecessor, the VCS3 MK1. It was driven by 12 VCOs and featured a built-in oscilloscope, two 60 x 60 patchbays, two joystick controllers, dual five-octave velocity-sensitive keyboard controllers and a three-layer, 10,000 step, 256 dual note digital sequencer. This system was mounted in a free-standing console cabinet. Tristram Cary assisted in the setup of the Synthi 100 in the Grainger Museum in 1973, with Keith Humble and technician Jim Sosnin. When Humble and Sosnin left the University of Melbourne to go to La Trobe University, technician Les Craythorn began his long association with the instrument. Les can be seen in the video made by ABC Television in 1976, displayed later in this exhibition, recreating Percy Grainger’s Free Music with the Synthi 100. Late in the 1980s the instrument went into storage, as people’s attention turned away from analogue to the convenience of digital machines. Craythorn has been centrally involved in restoring the Synthi 100 since 2014, and the instrument is once again actively used in research and performance.
