Raymond Deane (born 27 January 1953) is an Irish composer. ==Biography== Deane was born in Tuam, County Galway and brought up on Achill Island, County Mayo.〔Deane (2014), p. 11; see Bibliography.〕 From 1963 he lived in Dublin, where initially he studied the piano at the then College of Music with Fionn Ó Lochlainn.〔Fitzgerald (2013), p. 289; see Bibliography.〕 He studied at University College Dublin, graduating in 1974, and became a founding member of the Association of Young Irish Composers, a predecessor of today's (Association of Irish Composers ). He won a number of awards as a pianist.〔(Deane's Biography at RTE.ie ) RTE.ie Retrieved on 9 January 2014.〕 In 1974, Deane won a scholarship to study with Gerald Bennett at the Musikakademie in Basle, Switzerland. He moved on to Cologne as a student of Mauricio Kagel but was persuaded to change to studying with Karlheinz Stockhausen, which Deane abandoned after six months "due to Stockhausen's lack of engagement with his students at this period".〔Fitzgerald (2013), p. 289.〕 With a DAAD scholarship, Deane continued his studies with Isang Yun in Berlin. In the 1991 Accents Festival in Dublin, he was the featured composer (with Kurtág), also at the 1999 Sligo New Music Festival (with Roger Doyle). He represented Ireland in several ISCM festivals (Mexico City, Manchester, Hong Kong), and works were performed at the festivals l'Imaginaire irlandais (Paris 1996), Voyages (Montreal 2002), Warsaw Autumn (2004), and more than once at the UNESCO International Rostrum of Composers (his ''Ripieno'' for orchestra winning a special prize in 2000).〔(Featured composer at various festivals ) RTE.ie Retrieved on 9 January 2014.〕 He was also the artistic director of the first two RTÉ Living Music Festivals (Dublin 2002 and 2004), showcasing the music of Luciano Berio and contemporary French music respectively.〔(Artistic Director of RTE Living Music Festival ) Aosdana.artscouncil.ie Retrieved on 9 January 2014.〕 In 2010, a portrait concert of his chamber music took place at the Southbank Centre, London.〔Fitzgerald (2013), p. 289.〕 Deane was awarded a Doctorate in Composition by Maynooth University in 2005. He has been a member of Aosdána, the Irish state-supported academy of creative artists, since 1986. Besides his music, Raymond Deane is known for his social commitment and human rights activism, particularly for the (Ireland–Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC) ), which he co-founded in 2001, and the Irish Anti-War Movement. He cited early experiences of bullying in his childhood as a potential cause of this commitment: "() I have internalised the certainty that this bullying was a defining factor in my personal growth, eventually leading to my sporadic activism on behalf of the downtrodden".〔Deane (2014), p. 50–51.〕 Deane has always been active as a writer of essays and critic on music, having published in Irish journals such as "In Dublin", "Soundpost", the "Journal of Music in Ireland" and in some academic books. In 1991, he published a mock-Gothic novel called ''Death of a Medium''.〔Raymond Deane: ''Death of a Medium'' (Dublin: Odell & Adair, 1991), ISBN 1-870489-04-7.〕 He also wrote an autobiography, covering the years up to about 1987, which was published in 2014 (see Bibliography). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Raymond Deane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
