The Life of Composer Mirrie Hill
The names of Alfred Hill and Mirrie Hill have been often coupled in reference material on
music and a comparison of their work as composers has sometimes been posited. Mirrie Hill was gifted and able musician and composer.
One of Alfred Hill’s first students in Sydney was Mirrie Solomon. She had already studied with two other teachers of musical composition and was an accomplished pianist before becoming one of his pupils. Though they later would marry, there is no evidence that Alfred Hill influenced her composing style. Mirrie Hill was to be recognised as one of the few notable women composers of the twentieth century in Australia. During her lifetime she was best known for her contribution to music for young students of the pianoforte, but a later assessment might give her more credit for her music that was based on, and thereby honoured, the primitive music of some of Australia’s aboriginal people.

Miss Lucy Havens requests - CD
By Diana Weston
Regular price
$25.00
Music-making in the homes of early Australian settlers
Danielle Grant soprano, Tara Hashambhoy violin, Angus Ryan cello, Lucy Cormack cello, Diana Weston harpsichord, square piano
This album is made up largely of material derived from a portfolio labelled ‘Lucy Havens’, part of a large sheet music collection in the keep of Sydney Living Museums. The collection, donated by Stuart Symonds, comprises upwards of 2500 individual songs and pieces that were an integral part of domestic life in colonial Australia. The music within the ‘Lucy Havens’ portfolio is of unexpectedly good quality, highly listenable and enjoyable. Taken with the whole, it is also important as an historical entity - as an insight into the society, entertainment and culture of people in the early years of colonization.
Lucy Havens (1804-1867) was born in Monimail, Fife in Scotland, and moved to Whitehaven, Cumberland in the north of England before migrating to Sydney with her family in 1839. She married twice, the first in 1850 to a former convict and successful businessman Thomas Hyndes. Following his death in 1855, to a Scottish Presbyterian minister, William Purves.
