We have just two remaining tickets for the highly-anticipated #SydneyFilmFestival screening of #MozartsSister, the latest powerful film from acclaimed director Madeleine Hetherton-Miau and the incredible team Media Stockade. Interest has been huge in this film, which couldn't be more timely given the latest disheartening statistics from the Donne Foundation on gender representation in classical music composition. Despite the increase in the number of talented, diverse and contemporary classical composers, progress in advancing diversity in repertoire has marginally declined since last year. Analysis of 111 orchestras globally found 92.5% of works performed were by men. A staggering 89.3% of these compositions were by white men, with 78.4% of them from deceased white men! We're proud to be working alongside Media Stockade in leading the impact campaign alongside this must-see film. With such sobering new data, this film and its accompanying campaign are urgently needed to drive positive change in this space.

I recently had the opportunity to perform in Berlin, and it was a fantastic experience! 🙃 During the concert, I let the audience select two tones for the tonal center of my Baroque counterpoint improvisation, which resulted in the unusual combination of C# and G. Though it was a challenge, it was an exciting way to push my creativity. Here are some key takeaways from my journey in improvising counterpoint: 1️⃣ There’s always a leading voice—studies show that our brains don’t truly multitask; instead, we become better at switching between tasks. 2️⃣ While historical research is important, I believe in prioritizing expressive performance over adhering strictly to centuries-old practices. 3️⃣ I’ve found that singing along as I play aids my memory, allowing me to recall and develop musical ideas more effectively. What’s your perspective on improvisation, whether in music or another field? I'd love to hear your thoughts! (Ph. Reichelt)

🎵 The Musical Style Palette: Mapping Western Pop Artists 🎤 Music transcends boundaries, but what makes each artist unique? Using a 16-axis musical style palette, we can map the distinct qualities of Western pop artists, from Adele's powerful, romantic ballads to Billie Eilish's minimalist, experimental sound. Key axes include: Acoustic ↔ Electronic: Raw instrumentation vs. synth-heavy production Melodic ↔ Rhythmic: Flowing tunes vs. beat-driven grooves Soft ↔ Power: Gentle tones vs. dynamic energy Visualizing artists like Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, and The Weeknd on this chart highlights their stylistic diversity and creative evolution. 💡 Takeaway: This framework not only celebrates artistic variety but also deepens our understanding of music as a multidimensional craft. Discussion Prompt: Where does your favorite artist fall on the palette, and how does their style influence your experience?
