Description:
PI Robert Hasegawa and colleagues from McGill, Université de Montréal, the Société des Arts Technologiques (SAT) and local new music ensembles planned an edition of the IRCAM Forum Workshop hors les murs in Montreal (April 2 to 5, 2020). This event brings together diverse Montreal institutions and offers an opportunity for exchanges between researchers and artists from IRCAM and their counterparts in Canada and the United States. The event includes concerts by Le Nouvel Ensemble Moderne (Le NEM) with the Université de Montréal Ensemble de musique contemporaine, Ensemble Paramirabo, the McGill Contemporary Music Ensemble, and Sixtrum, with featured composers including Carmine Emanuele Cella (ACTOR member), Jean-Luc Hervé, and Sasha Blondeau.
The forum is an opportunity to share ACTOR research with an audience highly invested in new approaches to timbre and orchestration. It will include special sessions on the theme of orchestration, including presentations by ACTOR members, a talk by Carmine Cella on computer-aided orchestration, demonstrations of OrchView and OrchPlay, and exchanges between ACTOR collaborators at IRCAM, McGill, and UdeM and the Forum participants.
