Autorenporträt
Ian Pace (b. 1968) is internationally renowned as the leading pianistic interpreter of Finnissy's work, as well as a major scholar who has written extensively on compositional, aesthetic, and performative aspects of Finnissy's music, including major sketch study. He gave a six-concert series of Finnissy's complete piano music in 1996 for the composer's fiftieth birthday, and followed this twenty years later with an eleven-concert series of the now vastly expanded output, including a complete performance of Finnissy's epic five-and-a-half-hour cycle The History of Photography in Sound, which he premiered in London in 2001, recorded for Divine Art, and about which he published a monograph. More widely, Pace is well-known as a staunch advocate of new music who has given over 300 world premieres, played in over 25 countries, and recorded over 30 CDs. He is also a musicologist, and is Senior Lecturer and Head of Performance at City, University of London, having previously worked at Southampton University and Dartington College of Arts. His PhD was on new music and its infrastructure in West Germany from the Weimar Republic to the early Allied Occupation. Other areas of expertise include nineteenth-century performance practice, contemporary performance and practice-as-research, critical musicology, avant-garde aesthetics, and music under fascism and communism. Nigel McBride (b. 1990) is a composer and researcher. He was educated at The Queen's University, Belfast, and St. Anne's and Magdalen Colleges, Oxford. His research primarily focuses on philosophical approaches to compositional and musicological issues. While at Oxford, he taught composition and musicology extensively, as well as developed and convened the seminar series The Composers' Forum at Magdalen College. As a composer, he has collaborated with many leading performers of new music, including Ian Pace, Christopher Redgate, Gleb Kanasevich, Jack Adler-Mckean, The Cavaleri String Quartet, Jonathan Powell, and others. His music has been performed in Germany, across the UK, the USA, and others.
