KulturKontakt Austria bietet den Composers in Residence die Möglichkeit, in den amann studios an ihren Projekten in geeigneter Studioumgebung zu arbeiten und die entstandenen Werke in einem öffentlichen Konzert in der Reihe “AIR 2 hEar – composers’ encounters at amann studios” im kleineren Rahmen am Ende der fünftägigen Studiosession zu präsentieren, gemeinsam mit österreichischen Musikschaffenden.

Diese Neuauflage der “live recording sessions” ist Teil der seit einiger Zeit bestehenden Kooperation von KulturKontakt Austria mit amann studios. Als Gäste der Composers in Residence von Bundeskanzleramt und KulturKontakt Austria fungieren nun – in Umdrehung des ursprünglichen Prinzips – Musikschaffende und KomponistInnen aus Österreich.

Konzert in Kooperation von KulturKontakt Austria und amann studios

Eintritt frei

David Bird will present selections from a upcoming large scale electroacoustic work “Synonymic”, which explores a synth-laden retro-futuristic sound world comprised of off-kilter samples and computer generated sound.
