SUMMARY:Poème électronique #7
DESCRIPTION:Konzert „Sensophone“: Erasmus-Meisterklasse Saxophon mit Francisco Javier Rodriguez García
Termine: Di, 17. April 2018, 14.00–18.00 Uhr (Workshop I) Di, 17. April 2018, 19.00 Uhr (Konzert) Mi, 18. April 2018, 11.00–15.00 Uhr (Workshop II)
This workshop will revolve around the conventional repertoire for saxophone, emphasizing on a project called „sensophone“. Francisco Javier Rodriguez García sets sensors and controllers to a conventional saxophone in order to control electro-acoustic processes in real time. This way, the saxophone is keeping connected to a computer using WI-FI and an arduino micro-controller. The project responds to a new trend in electro-acoustic music called „amplified instruments“.
