Orchestration practice in the 21st century:
New methods and tools for analyzing, creating, and teaching orchestration
The Sub-Saharan African and Afro-Diasporic subgroup of the Diversity Workgroup is pleased to announce the second season of this Speaker Series. It will include 6 presentations over the 2023-24 academic year. The purpose of the series is to expand the ways we think about timbre and orchestration, diversify the music cultures ACTOR engages with, and to center the voices who know these traditions best.
Cutting edge timbre and orchestration research, concerts, new publications, new recording sessions.
“Orchestration involves the choice, combination or juxtaposition of sounds to achieve a musical end.”
