The Rui-Silva Duo was formed in 2004 by Sabrina Rui (cello) and Ana M. Silva (piano) as the result of the interest of both components for the study and dissemina- tion of the Chamber music repertoire com- posed for cello and piano. Their current repertoire includes musical pieces from the XVIII century to the present days including Spanish repertoire, with a romantic touch. Since its foundation, this duo has given nu- merous concerts all across Andalusia. Sabrina Rui and Ana M. Silva are professors of cello and piano, respec- tively, at the "Conservatorio Profesional de Música Gonzalo Martín Tenllado" of Málaga. They have in high consideration the master classes that, periodically, they have received from Sergei Yerokhin and Mischa Milman. 9 10 SMC. Music Session at Sala María Cristina SMC.1 Chris Rhodes Duet for Violin and Biofeedback Duet for Violin and Biofeedback is a live interactive piece, for Violin and Tape, which uses new wearable sensor technologies (biosensors) to explore the relationship between performer and performer biometric data. The piece incorporates the term ‘bio- feedback’ for this reason. The piece is in two parts. The first movement allows for the performer to play from a score, in uni- son with a Fixed Media recording, which uses the acousmatic medium to relay sounds inspired from trends observed in stud- ied biometric data. The second movement, however, allows the performer to interact with the piece: deciding its structure and dictating how the piece will sound. They do this by wearing a biosensor, to perform novel gestures (created via machine learn- ing before the performance), which aect playback and musical parameters of the Tape. Ultimately, this piece aims to explore the discourse between music inspired by biometric data and mu- sic composed from biometric data.

SMC.2 John Granzow Axes Luthiers use computer-controlled mills for the subtractive man- ufacture of guitar components. These machines have multiple motors stepping at variable rates to propel cutting tools in three dimensional paths with corresponding pitch contours. Axes is a work that brings these live robotic sounds of modern guitar- making to the concert space. For this piece, stepper motors are fixed to the neck, body and soundboard of an unassembled gui- tar. The motors are driven in concert as the x, y and z axes of a toolpath derived from a digital model of the instrument. The pitched and noisy motors are filtered acoustically through the guitar’s components and are captured via transducers to become the source for subtractive synthesis. The actuation and vibration Music Program Notes. 16th Sound & Music Computing Conference ISBN 978-84-09-11398-9 MUSIC PROGRAM NOTES 11 also make the guitar components mildly kinetic. MaxMSP is used for the additional processing and to generate nebulous quo- tations from the emerging guitar’s future/past repertoire, pro- ducing a collage of fine motor skills, both machine and human. Axes is a multichannel work that can be adapted to the channel count in the space. Duration: 8’ 00” Year of Composition: 2019 John Granzow is Assistant Professor of Performing Arts Technology at the Uni- versity of Michigan. He teaches musical acoustics, sound synthesis, performance systems and digital fabrication. He initiated the 3D Printing for Acoustics work- shop at the Centre for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics at Stanford. His instruments and installations leverage found objects, iterative CAD design, additive manufacturing and embedded sound synthesis. SMC.3 Akira Takaoka Piano Sinfonia Piano Sinfonia consists of three sections in simple ternary form. Lindenmeyer systems are extensively employed for the transfor- mations of pitch-class sets and the generation of melodic figures in every section. The L-systems are implemented in my own computer program for algorithmic composition written in Java. The Java program generated the piano part and score files for RTcmix, which produced all the synthesized sounds.
