Composers Forum is a daily web log that allows invited contemporary composers to share their thoughts and ideas on any topic that interests them--from the ethereal, like how new music gets created, music history, theory, performance, other composers, alive or dead, to the mundane, like getting works played and recorded and the joys of teaching. If you're a professional composer and would like to participate, send us an e-mail.
Record companies, artists and publicists are invited to submit CDs to be considered for review. Send to: Jerry Bowles, Editor, Sequenza 21, 340 W. 57th Street, 12B, New York, NY 10019
Check out my brand new podcast COMPOSERS AND THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE THEM. In this inaugural episode, Heebie McJeebie (TANDY Professor of Electronic Music at the Hotel Cadillac in Rochester, NY) interviews EVE BEGLARIAN in his specially designed Composer Isolation Chamber.
Here's what the critics are saying:
"I've never heard anything like it. Is this what they call an mp3?" –Mindy Grossman, Classical Music in America Newsletter
"Composers are moving from the grand concert halls and opera houses to tiny iPods and computers. Well, I, for one, am glad to see them go!" –Nervés Nelly, Symphony Orchestra Weekly
"This is the best thing since midi!" –Gary Dullite, Various Computer Music Handouts and Worksheets
