In this event February 7, Music Professor Kevin Austin reflects on Anhalt’s legacy and discusses how this founding father of Canadian electroacoustic music influenced his own life and choices.
Istvan for four MIDI-strated orchestras in 5.1, a memorial work composed by Austin, will be presented in public for the first, and possibly the last, time. A brief analysis will also be given.
When: Thursday, February 7, 2013, at 7 p.m.
Where: Room MB-8.245, Department of Music, John Molson School of Business Building (1450 Guy St.), Sir George Williams Campus
