Global interactions : an international perspective : a portfolio of compositions

Abstract

My portfolio of electroacoustic works entitled, Global Interactions: An International Perspective was produced in both Studio 1 at the University of Wales, Bangor and in my electroacoustic studio in Bangor between October 2000 and September 2004. The six pieces presented here are all for stereo diffusion and involve a host of both live and processed elements that represent a rhythmical and musical cross-section of solo and ensemble instruments and instrumental patterns from around the world. Collectively, the pieces juxtapose sonic ideas from different cultures and ideologies, bringing together many diverse (and sometimes, surprisingly similar) instrumental and rhythmical traditions.
