Emergence: Examining gender equity in music via a new contemporary opera

本次DECRA将探讨澳大利亚最重要的艺术形式之一：歌剧。由澳大利亚知名作曲家领导，旨在开发新的作曲和合作技术和方法。预期的结果包括对当代国际歌剧实践的新分析，以及一部以音乐中的性别平等为主题的澳大利亚原创歌剧，将这一主题的数据转化为创造性的实践。DECRA的意义在于为歌剧创造新的、更具包容性的框架，以女性和性别多样化的音乐创作者为中心，并可扩展到其他音乐流派。福利包括调查目前在澳大利亚工作场所出现的紧急问题，扩大边缘化群体的声音。

This DECRA will investigate one of Australia’s significant art-forms: opera. Led by an established Australian composer, it aims to develop new technologies and methods for composition and collaboration. The expected outcomes include new analysis of contemporary, international operatic practice and an original Australian opera that focuses on gender equity in music as its subject, translating data on this topic into creative-practice. The DECRA's significance is to create new, more inclusive frameworks for opera that centre women and gender-diverse music creators and can extend to other musical genres. Benefits include the investigation of urgent issues arising now in Australian workplaces and amplification of the voices of the marginalised.
