 ied in New York and later completed a Doctor of Musical Arts in compositio
 n at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music\, focusing on the interaction betw
 een notation and improvisation.\nFormed in 2018\, the beautifully haunting
  Black Square Quartet takes its name from Kasimir Malevich’s influential m
 inimalist painting. The quartet is known for championing new and Australia
 n works\, having premiered music by Thomas Green\, Cathy Likhuta\, Brenda
