Timeline
Gordon Kerry (born 1961) is an Australian composer, music administrator, music writer and music critic.
Kerry studied composition at the University of Melbourne under Barry Conyngham.
He then worked for the Sydney Festival and resided in Sydney for the next 16 years.
After the retirement of Fred Blanks, Kerry was invited to become a music critic for the Sydney Morning Herald.
The APRA Awards are presented annually from 1982 by the Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA).
They include the Art Music Awards, which are distributed by APRA AMCOS and the Australian Music Centre (AMC).
In April 1997 he was appointed artistic administrator for Musica Viva Australia, a post he held for 18 months but left as he had too little time to compose.
He then became the organisation's musical adviser.
He also contributes pieces for Limelight and The Australian's Review of Books.
Bright Meniscus was inspired by J. R. Rowland's poem "Canberra in April" and was premiered by the Canberra Symphony Orchestra in May 1997.
His Clarinet Concerto was commissioned by Symphony Australia and was premiered on 21 August 2002, with soloist Francesco Celata and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra under Sir Mark Elder.
It includes a short quotation from Kerry's "Fioritura", a short solo piece written for Celata.
Since 2002 he has lived with his partner in Sandy Creek, overlooking Lake Hume in northern Victoria, not far from Wodonga.
The opera was based on the 2005 murder of Maria Korp by her husband Joe Korp's lover Tania Herman, and Joe Korp's subsequent suicide (it was originally to be called Korp).
Principal soloists were Antoinette Halloran and Byron Watson.
Although all the names were changed, members of the Korp family and victims of crime organisations criticised the production for lack of sensitivity.
His Violin Concerto "So Dreams Thy Sails" was commissioned by Andrew and Fiona Johnston, and scored for solo violin, harp, horns and strings.
In 2009, he was awarded the Ian Potter Established Composer Fellowship.
His book New Classical Music: Composing Australia was published by UNSW Press in 2009.
In 2012 he was Musica Viva Australia's Composer-in-Residence.
On 16 May 2012, Kerry's opera Midnight Son was premiered at the Malthouse Theatre, Melbourne, by Victorian Opera.
Its libretto was by Louis Nowra, and it was directed by Nicki Wendt.
It was written as a homage to Kerry's father's 90th birthday, and was premiered on 30 October 2016, with soloist Helena Rathbone and the Australian Chamber Orchestra.
His opera The Snow Queen (libretto by John Kinsella, based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen) was commissioned by Victorian Opera, and was premiered in Wodonga on 3 November 2017, conducted by Richard Mills.
