Lost works by Meta Overman and Margaret Sutherland
About
Meta Overman and Margaret Sutherland: Lost works from Australia's Queens of Colour and FantasyPerformed by Dr Jeanell Carrigan AM and Sirius Chamber Ensemble.
Meta Overman and Margaret Sutherland, composers who were friends in Melbourne in the 1950s, both wrote a lot of wonderful music. However, due to a lack of support from publishing houses, who at the time were mostly publishing pedagogical music or music from male composers, most of their works were not published during their lifetime. Sutherland has had a lot of her music published since her death, but most of Overman's handwritten scores have ended up abandoned. Dr Jeanell Carrigan (Sydney Conservatorium of Music) has discovered these scores, analysed them, and has published them through Wirripang.
Performers: Dr Jeanell Carrigan (piano), Jennifer Taylor (violin), Lucy Carrigy-Ryan (viola), Melissa Coleman and Henry Liang (flutes), Ian Sykes (clarinet), and Clare Kahn (cello).
