MUSIC AND INSTALLATIONS
   ICMC98 is particularly interested in electro-acoustic music
   that includes some aspect of human real-time performance.

   University of Michigan Ensembles participating in ICMC98
   include the Symphonic Band (woodwinds, brass and
   percussion), the Contemporary Directions Ensemble (ensemble
   committed to the performance of new works), Percussion
   Ensemble (electronic and acoustic percussion), the Digital
   Music Ensemble (electronic and acoustic instruments) and the
   University Dancers.

   Since the University of Michigan School of Music offers
   studio instruction in virtually all traditional Western
   instruments, small ensembles can easily be created as
   required by the ICMC98 program.

   A number of architecturally-interesting spaces are available
   for installations.  These spaces are in close proximity to
   ICMC98 sessions.

   For a submission form, please see the ICMC98 WWW site after
   September 1, 1997 or the ICMC98 Brochure (initially
   available at ICMC97).
