By Andrew Schultz

$25.00 Sale

   Opera by Andrew Schultz

   Libretto by Glenn Perry after Helen Garner

   Canberra International Music Festival, directed by Roland Peelman.

The Children’s Bach, an opera in two acts, was commissioned in 2008 by Chamber Made Opera, Melbourne with the aid of a Project Fellowship from the Music Board, Australia Council. The libretto was supported by The RE Ross Trust Playwrights' Script Development Awards. This recording was made at The Fitter’ s Workshop, Canberra in May 2019.

Brief Synopsis: Athena and Dexter lead an enclosed family life in Melbourne, innocent of fashion and bound by duty towards an autistic child, Billy. Their comfortable rut is disrupted by the arrival of Elizabeth, a tough nut from Dexter's past. With her sister (Vicki), fickle boyfriend (Philip) and his smart teenage daughter (Poppy), she draws the couple out into a world whose casual egotism and sexuality they had barely dreamed of. Can they get home again? (from The Children's Bach - Helen Garner, Penguin Books, 1999 Edition)

Deep blue and dirty

By Andrew Schultz

$25.00 Sale

The title work of this CD, Deep blue and dirty, is a work for bassoon and piano, based on two connected themes cleverly developed so that they move throughout the work without interruption as it unfolds about the listener.  Thus, the cleverness of the composer, Andrew Schultz, is revealed as we are led down a series of works highlighting leaps ahead of conventional theory to make music a unique experience.  Southern Cross Soloists,  Stephen Emmerson and Lucinda Collins together have created this wonderful CD of chamber and vocal music.

From Fire Country

By Andrew Schultz

$20.00 Sale

Solo Bass Clarinet in Bb, c.5'40. Grade A.Mus.A
AMEB Manual List D, Level 3 Licentiate

The title derives in part from the work "Journey to Horseshoe Bend", which was composed just before this work. The third section of that work is set in a desolate landscape of red cliffs and burnt rocks known as "Fire Country" in Aranda Aboriginal mythology. The bass clarinet perhaps evokes the desolate quality of a landscape after fire.

I am black (Song of Songs)

By Andrew Schultz

$15.00 Sale

Soprano voice and piano, c.1.35'. Grade 8-A.Mus

The text is drawn from the Jerusalem Bible translation of The Song of Songs and depicts a woman's longing for her absent lover. It is unknown whether the woman is swarthy from outdoor work or black skinned racially. In the original text the sequence opens: 'I am black but lovely'. The implied social inequality of the lovers adds strongly to the poignancy of their mutual absorption.
