From 2011 until 2014, Australia marked its long-standing connection with Antarctica by celebrating the centenary of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition. The icy continent, with its extremes of climate and environment and unique soundscapes, offers great potential for creative achievements in the world of music and sound. This book demonstrates the intellectual and creative engagement of artists, musicians, scientists and writers. Consciousness of sounds -- in particular, musical ones -- has not been at the forefront of our aims in polar endeavours, but listening to and appreciating them has been as important there as elsewhere. 606 $aMusic festivals$zAustralia$zCanberra (A.C.T.) 607 $aAntarctica$xDiscovery and exploration$vCongresses 607 $aAntarctica$xSongs and music$vCongresses 615 0$aMusic festivals 676 $a780.789471 702 $aHince$b Bernadette 702 $aSummerson$b Rupert 702 $aWiesel$b Arnan$f1961- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910131513603321 996 $aAntarctica$9741014 997 $aUNINA
