Patrick, who hails from Uddingston, has been the inspiration for this project and is keen to promote the opportunities that the world of Film and TV can provide for young people. “It is extremely important to me that young Scottish people will be performing for an International audience at the ISME Conference. I come from South Lanarkshire, which gave me tremendous musical opportunities that I have built upon throughout my film composing career. Hopefully the IT project will inspire this new generation.” patrick Doyle Patrick Doyle is a classically trained composer.

Students of different ages and levels of study can participate without being classified by their skills and talent. They are fully responsible for the realization of each play: they compose melodies and lyrics (libretto), harmonize, sing (choir, arias and recitativo) and present their play on stage both as musicians and as performers, thus approaching all different areas of music involved:skill development (psychomotor), cognitive (knowledge acquisition) and, last but not least, emotional (enjoyment of music and sensitivity). Tettix was created, is directed and taught by the music educator and music instructor Teti Aivatzidou at Rizopoulou Concervatory. Up to now, Tettix have presented three opera performances: The Princess Diskoloula, Stonesoup, and The Little Prince. The performance is held under the auspices of the Greek Ministry of Culture.

This culminated in a performance of the piece in the presence of the composer, Howard Skempton, who was delighted with the innovative approach taken to his piece. All the members are trained in Dalcroze Eurhythmics and bring with them an interest in exploring repertoire through movement and vocal improvisation. This piece is a perfect gift for us! Repertoire: Skempton’s “The Flight of Song” for SATB chorus is a setting of a compilation of imaginative, simple, expressive poetry in four short movements. The music illuminates the text by adopting its natural rhythms and the harmonic simplicity of the outer movement creates a sense of transparency, in contrast to the inner two movements, which are of a more chromatic nature. The work opens with a free poetic collage, improvised from a graphic score. Performers: Rebecca Spencer, Kaye Barker, Victoria Conlan, Myrtle Bruce-Mitford, Bethan Habron-James, Lis Dooner, Bruce Rafeek, John Habron and David Buley 32nd ISME World Conference on Music Education 19 tuesday 26th July 1200-1230 City of Music Studio, Glasgow Royal Concert Hall fèis fhoirt Cèilidh trail Band (sCotlanD, uK) The Ceilidh Trail is a professional development opportunity for outstanding young musicians who are considering a performance career in music.

Seven works have been performed, five recorded for a commercial CD, plus three lecture-recitals given in four Australian cities. The lectures focus on issues emerging from the rehearsal, performing and recording process through a practice-led research paradigm. The viola remains the ‘Cinderella’ of the string family, and this project is resulting in new works for the growing number of Australian violists as well as providing important new repertoire for violists overseas. This fosters national and international interest in Australian contemporary classical music. Repertoire: Clare Maclean In the Sea Paths ‘In the sea paths’ is a phrase from the Anglo-Saxon poem, the Seafarer. The poem’s imagery of sea paths as paths of life resonates with symbolism of the sea as the soul or the subconscious in literature and mythology. In this piece melodic paths begin in a fragmentary way and emerge more completely as the piece progresses, with the coming and going of motivic eddies. Cat Hope The Sinister Glamour of Modernity (after Ross Gibson) This piece for piano and viola, dedicated to Dawn Bennett, explores ways of tracing memory. Can the things that happen in a place or time be somehow recoded or remember if there is no ‘physical’ evidence of them? Using the performers’ musical ears to identify and trace each other’s pitch and dynamic choices, this work uses the concept of the sustained note as a possible memory etch.
