Orchestration Strategies in Electroacoustic Music
This month, we will have our last ACTOR-CIRMMT Symposium on Orchestration Research focusing on CORE Rounds 3 and 4 held at McGill and UMontréal in the 2024-2025 term.
The seminar will include four presentations by graduate composers from both institutions who were part of the CORE project. The aim of the symposium is to learn about the composers' strategies, compositional and orchestrational decisions in the context of electroacoustic and live-electronic music.
Program:
Naive aestheticization as primary material: the handling of timbre and orchestration in "Musée" for mixed ensemble, Alexander Bridger (Université de Montréal)
Form bearing strategies with live electronics in "Monochrome" for violin, vibraphone, trombone, bass clarinet and live-electronics, Lorenzo Paniconi (McGill University)
Deconstructing and Reconstructing Timbre in Mixed Music, Yue Wang (Université de Montréal)
Writing spatial effects with timbre in mixed music, Jonas Regnier (McGill University)
The symposium will take place May 16 from 11:30am to 1:30pm EDT in room A832 of the Elizabeth Wirth Building of the Schulich School of Music. Remote attendance is supported.
