"Having composed his first major electro-acoustic work in 1965, 'The Return,' New Zealand composer Douglas Lilburn (1915-2001) set up New Zealand's first electronic music studio in Victoria University of Wellington where he held a teaching position as a senior lecturer in music. He subsequently went on to create a significant body of electro-acoustic music with predominant New Zealand themes."
