It is an annual forum for ideas relating to the creation and performance of Australian music. In the spirit of the great Australian composer Peggy Glanville-Hicks, an outstanding advocate of Australian music delivers the address each year, challenging the status quo and raising issues of importance in new music. In 2013, Genevieve Lacey was guest speaker presenting her Address entitled Learning to Listen at the Sydney Conservatorium and Deakin Edge Federation Square in Melbourne.

It can change how we perceive the world, and then, how we decide to live in it.  \nTo listen suggests an open, receptive stance, without necessarily knowing what will arrive. It suggests alertness, willingness. Listening is essentially an act of respect and generosity. It is a time for keeping our egos quiet, for hearing others’ needs and opinions. Many of the great leaders of historical and contemporary times, the visionaries, the peacemakers, the activistsand healers, are essentially great listeners. A great leader has an ability to listen acutely to the concerns of their era, to imagine what might be possible, and to bring that to life. It’s interesting to think about what that could mean for the role of musicians in society now.  \nMusicians are consummate listeners. Our attentiveness is a gift, with potentially broadreaching applications. I would love musicians to  \nrealise that we have skills that go way beyond the specifics of our craft as instrumentalists, composers, researchers, programmers, therapists, funders, managers, critics, teachers, administrators, broadcasters, producers – whatever our musical practice is. Listening with care, hearing complexity, and noticing subtlety need not be purely professional music practices, but tenets for living. Such listening has radical potential.  \nI’ve titled this talk Learning to Listen because I think listening is what music uniquely offers – a space to encounter, to experience, to extend our thinking and imagination. In that spirit of listening, I would like to acknowledge that we gather on the traditional lands of the Cadigal/ Wurundjeri people, and to pay my respects to elders past and present.  \nI would also like to acknowledge your presence, here in this room. Without you, listeners, this forum would not exist, and I would not have had the privilege and the particular challenge of trying to articulate some thoughtson music. Without listeners, a great deal of  \n26 2013, No. 2  \nour musical life would not take place. You are essential.  \nSo, I thank you, and I also thank the New Music Network, for their vision in creating this annual event – the only public address on music in Australia. In speaking tonight, I follow in the footsteps of some of our most esteemed colleagues. I am honoured and delighted by that.  \nAs I have prepared this talk, I have done my best to summon the spirit of the inimitable Peggy Glanville-Hicks. Sadly, we never met. I first came to know her via her Recorder Sonatina, and with that introduction, listened avidly to many of her works. The last months, I’ve been listening again, reading her scores and writings, as well as words that others have written about her life and music. She’s an inspiring role model for me, a woman born a couple of generations later, still grappling with similar questions: in essence, how","cbCailmowc7spT4m","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailmowc7spT4m","pdf",100404,"English","# Learning to Listen\n## Purpose of the Peggy Glanville-Hicks Address\n## Listening as a creative and respectful act\n## Musicians as consummate listeners\n## Acknowledgements and legacy of Peggy Glanville-Hicks\n## One-minute commissioned pieces","[{\"question\":\"What is the Peggy Glanville-Hicks Address, and why does it exist?\",\"answer\":\"It is an annual forum for ideas related to the creation and performance of Australian music, established in 1999.
