Stephen Drury plays John Cage's Etudes australes
Stephen Drury performs John Cage's Etudes australes with Frederic Rzewski at the Festival d'Automne a Paris in Paris, France. Composed in 1974-1975, the piece (a total of 32 Etudes, organized into 4 books, each book having 8 Etudes) consists of single tones and combinations derived from star charts of the Atlas Australis. Though notated on conventional staves, there are no dynamic markings nor pedal instructions, and the player is free to interpret the notes given.
Pianist and conductor Stephen Drury has performed throughout the world with a repertoire that stretches from Bach to Liszt to the music of today. He has appeared at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, the Barbican Centre and Queen Elizabeth Hall in London, the Cité de la Musique in Paris, and the Leipzig Gewandhaus, and from Arkansas to Seoul. A champion of contemporary music, he has taken the sound of dissonance into remote corners of Pakistan, Greenland and Montana.
