A Room of Her Own: Music by Anne Cawrse

Join Syzygy Ensemble and soprano Judith Dodsworth for a sumptuous evening of chamber music by leading Australian composer Anne Cawrse. A Room of Her Own showcases pivotal works from Cawrse’s extensive chamber catalogue, characterised by soaring lyrical melodies and dexterous rhythmic interplay. The program culminates in the premiere performance of Muse - a self-portrait, generously supported by the Albert Maggs commission. Here, Cawrse turns her focus inwards, embracing self-quotation as a structural catalyst, depicting her own musical legacy.

PARKING

The City of Melbourne has recently changed the parking restrictions around the Southbank Campus. Parking control hours are now expanded to 7am–10pm, seven days per week, and are capped at three hours. A $2-per-hour fee after 7pm is also now in place. There is no change to the $4-per-hour peak rate between 7am–7pm. Parking inspectors are regularly in the area fining drivers who overstay their meter, so we encourage everyone to be aware and avoid an expensive fine.
