COLLOQUIUM OF COMPOSERS  

and Concert dialogue

July 30 th and 31st 2010

            The Destellos Foundation calls composers to our 1st Colloquium of Composers to discuss different aspects of Electroacoustic Music : spaces of sound diffusion, influence of multimedia expressions, management of creation, education, institutional exchanges and other topics related to the current situation of the composer. The participation will be free and open to composers, students, teachers, musicologists, other artists and public.

         The meeting will take place in Mar del Plata city (Argentina) with the participation of composer- residents Diana Simpson (England) and Chikashi Miyama (Japan).

         You are invited to participate and bring your ideas. The suggested themes are:           

•  The current situation of the composer : the teacher-composer and the independent composer. What are their particular problems and possible solutions ?

•  The student-composer: What are the difficulties after the academic stage ? What are the possibilities of insertion in the professional environment? Is a mentor needed to guide the composer during the first stages of his/her professional career? Are master classes, seminars and colloquiums important for them ?

•  The need for a space to show the work: What type of space? Ways to insert those spaces into a larger cultural environment.

•  Influence of Electroacoustic Music on other art forms and culture in general.

•  What are the consequences that multi-media expressions have on musical æsthetics?

•  Institutional exchanges : What contributions do they provide to the development and promotion of E.A.music and digital arts ? Can institutional sponsorship by itself alone contribute to a better expansion of these arts ? What other contexts could provide support and in what way ?

•  Management : different formulas, strategies, self-management : positive and negative aspects, the "old art" and the new cultural industry.

         The discussions will take place in round table fashion where each participant will have 10 minutes to present his/her ideas. At the end of all the presentations there will be an open discussion. Sessions will take place between 9AM and 5PM.    

         At the end of the round tables there will be a "Concert to the basket". This new concert modality allows participants to show their pieces if they wish.

Registration required before June 15th by email : info@fundestellos.org

Participants must indicate: name and last name, telephone number, e-mail, profession, theme of the proposal, title and duration of the proposed work for the concert * (if any) and how did he/she know about the colloquium.

 

* Only stereo works with a maximum duration of 8' will be accepted.
