Background
Sculthorpe, Peter Joshua was born on April 29, 1929 in Launceston, Tasmania. Son of Joshua and Edna (Moorhouse) Sculthorpe.
(Irkanda I is a completely Australian work; the undisturbe...)
Irkanda I is a completely Australian work; the undisturbed, primeval land is like a silent presence summoned by the music, which is free of all sophisticated influences. The composer has shut himself off from tonality and there is a wordless searching as if language had not yet been invented; the music portrait of a non-human environment.
