She went on to study composition atseveral institutions around Europe with notable teachers: The Royal College of Music (London) with Peter Racine Fricker, the Darmstadt Ferienkurs furNeue Musik with Gottfried Michael Koenig, the Musikhochschule, (Cologne, Germany) and in also Holland. During the late 60’s and early seventies,Annea performed and composed around Europe but made London her home. Her compositions featured non-conventional instruments, such as glasstubing and burning, moss covered pianos, which she described as sound sculptures, and presented in performance pieces with other sound poets andintegrated choreography. Lockwood is most well-known for “The Glass Concert” (1967) which was published in Source Music of the Avant-Garde thenrecorded and released by Tangent records.In the 70’s Annea began to compose what could be considered performance art pieces, though her work was still situated in the realm of music; theyare considered so because the essence of the compositional ideas made the audience and environment agents in the piece. « hide |
