Imogen Manins is an uncommonly gifted cellist, whose classical background
and wonderfully creative and innovative musical mind have led to performance
now
primarily in improvisational music. Manins has collaborated with many of
Australias most outstanding improvisers and classical players, leading
to an exploration of new musical ground for cello. Manins' piece The
River Meets the Sea' co-improvised by Tony Gould and David Jones won the
2009 'Instrumental Work of the Year' at the APRA/AMC Classical Music Awards.
Recording projects include quartet CD 'is it spring yet? for the 'Hush'
series and two trio recordings with David Jones and Tony Gould - 'under
the tall trees' (ABC 2008) and 'the cello and the mockingbird' (Move 2011). |
