Book The Art and Technique of Electroacoustic Music

Download or read book The Art and Technique of Electroacoustic Music written by Peter Elsea and published by A-R Editions, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-06-01 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electroacoustic music is now in the mainstream of music, pervading all styles from the avant-garde to pop. Even classical works are routinely scored on a computer and a synthesized demo is a powerful tool for previewing a piece. The fundamental skills of electroacoustic composition are now as essential to a music student as ear training and counterpoint. The Art and Technique of Electroacoustic Music provides a detailed approach those fundamental skills. In this book Peter Elsea explores the topic from the fundamentals of acoustics through the basics of recording, composition with the tools of music concreté, and music production with MIDI instruments, softsynths and digital audio Workstations. Later sections of the book cover synthesis in depth and introduce high powered computer composition languages including Csound, ChucK, and Max/MSP. A final section presents the challenges and techniques of live performance. This book can be used as a text for undergraduate courses and also as a guide for self-learning.

Book The Language Electroacoustic Music

Download or read book The Language Electroacoustic Music written by Simon Emmerson and published by Springer. This book was released on 1986-12-03 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the inception of electroacoustic music in 1948, much has been written about technical developments. This book is one of the first to examine aesthetic issues central to this rapidly developing genre. It brings together composers from leading academic departments and studios in Britain, the United States, Canada and Paris with a wide range of approaches and opinions, resulting in a study which is likely to have a marked impact on current debates on the future of electroacoustic music. The book is divided into three sections. The first, Culture and Language, considers the relationship between music and the listener's perception and expectation. Materials and Lanugage looks at the types of materials available to composers and the way in which the internal structure of the sound can have implications for the overall structure of a piece. The final section, The Influence of New Technology, considers the relationship between computer systems and the music they are helping to create.

Book Music  Electronic Media  and Culture

Download or read book Music Electronic Media and Culture written by Simon Emmerson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2000 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emmerson (music, City U. of London) presents nine essays by musical experts who explore the new world of music sounds and the questions it poses in terms of making music and listening to it. First, they discuss the myriad confusing and exciting possibilities raised by sound that we hear but whose source we cannot see (the acousmatic), providing new perspectives including an ecological view of human perception. Next, they explore the ways in which the history and plurality of culture has itself become the object of musical creativity in the form of sampling or plundering. Finally, they probe the potential fields of sound perception offered by the imagination. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

Book Analytical Methods of Electroacoustic Music

Download or read book Analytical Methods of Electroacoustic Music written by Mary Simoni and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-12-09 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing extensive artwork serving as demonstration, as well as downloadable resources with sound and video clips, this collection of essays on electroacoustic music explores the creative possibilities to be found in various forms of musical analysis. Taking pitch, duration, intensity, and timbre as the four basic elements of music, the authors discuss electroacoustic works and examine: * the applications of neumes * contemporary staff notation * sound orchestra and score files * time-domain representations * spectrograms. Taking into consideration both the positive aspects (preservation of the abstract) and negative aspects (creative limitation) of these analytical methods, the authors have created a useful resource for students of electroacoustic music.

Book Electroacoustic Music in East Asia

Download or read book Electroacoustic Music in East Asia written by Marc Battier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illuminates the development of electronic and computer music in East Asia, presented by authors from these countries and territories (China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan). The scholars bring forward the cultural complexities and conflicts involved in their diverse encounters with new music technology and modern aesthetics. How electronic music attracted the interest of composers from East Asia is quite varied – while composers and artists in Japan delved into new sounds and music techniques and fostered electronic music quite early on; political, sociological, and artistic conditions pre-empted the adoption of electronic music techniques in China until the last two decades of the twentieth century. Korean and Taiwanese perspectives contribute to this rare opportunity to re-examine, under a radically different set of cultural preconditions, the sweeping musical transformation that similarly consumed the West. Special light is shed on prominent composers, such as Sukhi Kang, Toshiro Mayuzumi, Toru Takemitsu, and Xiaofu Zhang. Recent trends and new directions which are observed in these countries are also addressed, and the volume shows how the modern fusion of music and technology is triangulated by a depth of culture and other social forces. This book was originally published as a special issue of Contemporary Music Review.
