Interrupted Cadence

Описание: The film traces the creation and premiere of 'Interrupted Cadence', a work for two pianos by Christopher Sainsbury, written for pianist Reuben Johnson. Commissioned as part of The ANAM Set 2024, the piece reflects on the quiet decline of communal music-making in regional Australia after the 1950s, as pianos gave way to newer technologies.

The ANAM Set is a bold and ambitious commissioning project delivering confidence and vision in Australia’s creative future. The initiative pairs composers with an ANAM musician who they collaborate with to create a new work.
