SUMMARY:Plenary Presentation: Tazul Tajuddin - Mediation Of Hybrid Cultures
DESCRIPTION:TAZUL IZAN TAJUDDIN\, presenter \nABOUT THE EVENT\n\nMy story is a musical journey in composition which is inspired by visual patterns\, Islamic art and cultural diversity of European and Eastern cultures. My works are identified as being Malay\, but also South East Asian\, with clear influence from Indonesia as part of the ‘Nusantara’ region and the Malay Archipelago. I would like to share some selections of my music\, many of which were inspired by Asian cultures\, geometrical patterns and designs\, and Western European art combined with multi-cultural contemporary ideals. I will also present a snapshot of my opera\, Puteri Saadong\, a first opera in the Malay language\, which was premiered in Malaysia\, Japan and the UK. \n\nHenri Dutilleux has described Malaysian composer Tazul Tajuddin’s work as ‘an original temperament\, which encompasses both rigour and new ways of thinking’. Having studied with and encountered composers and personalities such as Toshio Hosokawa\, Leonardo Balada\, Xavier Montsalvatge\, Juan Pablo Izquierdo\, Franco Donatoni\, Jonathan Harvey\, Michael Finnissy\, Brian Ferneyhough\, Iannis Xenakis\, Pierre Boulez and others\, Tazul Tajuddin is recognized for his artistic excellence and work in Malaysian music education. Tazul is Associate Professor and Dean at the Faculty of Music\, Universiti Teknologi MARA in Shah Alam\, Malaysia. \nThis event is presented as part of Performers(‘) Present 2019: Telling Stories. \n\n\n\n\nAbout Tazul Tajuddin\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM\nNarratives – whether historical\, political\, or musical; whether fact or fiction – are inextricably bound to the ways we experience the world\, and the art that translates these experiences. \nIn the decade since we began hosting the triennial Performers(‘) Present symposium\, artistic research has been undergoing rapid and ground-shifting transformations\, with the performer’s voice becoming ever more present. As with our previous symposia\, Telling Stories seeks to address and evolve the kaleidoscopic issues facing 21st-century performers\, as they reflect on their practice in the context of significant shifts in politics\, communications and technology\, and performance practice.  \nCome join us and the artistic research community at the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music from 23 – 26 October 2019\, as we reflect on the power of music narratives and celebrate their narrators in Performers(‘) Present 2019: Telling Stories. \n\n\n\n\nLearn More\n\n\n\n\nTICKETING INFORMATION\n• Free admission.• All event information is correct at time of print.• Out of respect for other concertgoers\, no children under 6 years of age will be allowed admission.
