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

DECRA将调查澳大利亚重要的艺术形式之一：歌剧。它由一位知名的澳大利亚作曲家领导，旨在开发作曲和合作的新技术和方法。预期的结果包括对当代国际歌剧实践的新分析，以及一部以音乐性别平等为主题的原创澳大利亚歌剧，将这一主题的数据转化为创造性实践。DECRA的意义在于为歌剧创建新的、更具包容性的框架，以妇女和性别多样化的音乐创作者为中心，并可以扩展到其他音乐流派。好处包括对澳大利亚工作场所目前出现的紧急问题进行调查，并放大被边缘化者的声音。

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.
