Abstract:

Perhaps digital music is the result of computer synthesized sound, digital signal processing or musical structures stored on hard drives or compact discs. But being the subject matter of this concert, digital music has a broader meaning at CCRMA. It is the expression of a group of people working to breed compositions and musical gadgets which make numbers and equations a musical gesture. The works in this concert have inherited an amazing set of techniques mostly developed by the science of music which indeed would not have happened if there were not tools in the domains of frequency modulation, a great variety of filtering techniques, and most recently the ability to compose with physical models of acoustic instruments and the waveguide mesh, in addition to current research in perception and expression modeling. This concert includes state of the art pieces for instruments and media, as well as computer generated pieces using real or modeled sounds of musical instruments, and expression of enfolding sound around a listening space as a crucial accidental in all compositions.
