Squaring the circle: FearNoMusic's upcoming concert of electroacoustic music by Oregon composers * Oregon ArtsWatch
Briefly

FearNoMusic's upcoming event, "Grounded: An Evening of Electroacoustic Music," showcases five composers who creatively merge acoustic and electronic sounds. Electroacoustic music is relatively new, enabling significant experimentation compared to traditional genres. The performance features violinists and a pianist aligned with a digital soundscape, traditionally produced from magnetic tape but now often generated via digital devices. Each composer employs unique methods, such as live effects processing, to synchronize and manipulate sounds in real time, expanding the genre's boundaries and possibilities for artistic expression.
Electroacoustic music, while vague in definition, offers a unique platform for composers to blend live instruments with electronic sounds, promoting experimentation and creativity.
