Southampton PhD researcher shortlisted for ISCM

University of Southampton PhD candidate Cameron Graham has been placed on the shortlist for the British Composer section of the ISCM's 2019 World Music Days Festival.

Cameron is one of six nominees to make the shortlist and is a composer writing for instruments, hand-made instruments, crooked media and devices. His music confronts problems around the potency of materials, ethnography and the different ways to accentuate immediacy between the creation and reception of music.

Cameron is currently working towards a PhD under the supervision of Dr Matthew Shlomowitz, and has secured funding from the prestigious South West and Wales Doctoral Training Programme.

Also shortlisted is Southampton alumna Claudia Molitor, who studied at the Univeristy with Emeritus Professor Michael Finissy.
