This room presents the music of second year and third year undergraduate students who were enrolled in Bruce Crossman’s units, Composition and Creativity, and Songwriting and Composer Collaboration, in Autumn 2020. Their work was chosen for the creative and imaginative ways in which it responded to the brief, including generating musical ideas through improvisation in the online space. In the Songwriting and Composer Collaboration room, the students worked as soloists and in small ensembles, and they include: sisters, Ashleigh and Maddison Arraiza; Abraham Box, Same Beazley, Sarah Vella and Steven Cox; Matt Charleston; Kia Chian, Joshua Wood, and Liam Munroe; Matthew Dennett and Pamela Withnall (2 works); Lachlan Guyer; Casey Hedge and Tom Holloway; Mario Melo; Michael Nguyen and Jessica Said; and Rodrigo Cerda Salas and Erick Perdomo-Borelly. In the Composition and Creativity Room, the students worked in a similar way and include: Rachel Barrett-Giudice; Ruby Beck; Lili Chang and Newton Cheang; Jack Cluelle and Judd Cosio; Aaron Ha; James Key, Daphne Webb and Jake Schatzman; Rami Botani, Mitch Marsters, Martha Jones, and Baris Aykut; Erick Perdomo-Borelly; Brandon Rodriguez and Leo Sharaf; and Sarah Vella, Elysa Villareal and McKenzie Ward.
