Throughout 2020, hcmf// has been particularly mindful of all the freelance composers and artists whose world suddenly paused back in March, and has not yet restarted or returned to anywhere approaching previous levels of activity. We have tried therefore to utilise whatever resources are available us to support the sector, by commissioning new works – from Graham McKenzie large-scale to miniature – from established composers to new voices – and Artistic Director & Chief Executive to provide an ongoing platform for the presentation of new music. To date this year hcmf// has awarded over 30 commissions, some of which can be experienced as part of this festival edition, with others following in 2021 and beyond.

A compositional tradition. Orpheus Research Centre in Music [ORCiM] 22-23 February 2012, Orpheus Institute, Ghent Belgium The fourth International ORCiM Seminar organised at the Orpheus Institute offers an opportunity for an international group of contributors to explore specific aspects of ORCiM's research focus: Artistic Experimentation in Music. The theme of the conference is: Composition – Experiment – Tradition. This two-day international seminar aims at exploring the complex role of experimentation in the context of compositional practice and the artistic possibilities that its different approaches yield for practitioners and audiences. How these practices inform, or are informed by, historical, cultural, material and geographical contexts will be a recurring theme of this seminar. The seminar is particularly directed at composers and music practitioners working in areas of research linked to artistic experimentation.

    Lucie Vítková (1985, Boskovice, CZ); +1 347 967 2997; [email protected]; http://www.vitkovalucie.com. I am a composer, performer and improviser of accordion, harmonica, voice and dance from the Czech Republic. My work pursues two lines of enquiry: my compositional practice focuses on sonification (compositions based on abstract models derived from physical objects), while my improvisational practice explores characteristics of discrete spaces through the interaction between sound and movement. Recently, I have become particularly interested in the question of social relationships in music and their implications for the structural organization of musical pieces. I explore this theme in all aspects of my work.

A Festival of Artistic Research (Graz, 5–7 October 2017) Artistic research is currently a much-talked about and highly innovative field of know- ledge creation which combines artistic with academic practice. One of its central features is ambitious artistic experiments exploring musical and other questions, systematically bringing them into dialogue with reflection, analysis and other academic approaches. ARTikulationen, a two-and-a-half day festival of artistic research that has been running under that name since 2016, organised by the Artistic Doctoral School (KWDS) of the Uni- versity of Music and Performing Arts Graz (KUG), expands the pioneering format deve- loped by Ulf Bästlein and Wolfgang Hattinger in 2010, in which the particular moment of artistic research – namely audible results, which come about through a dynamic between art and scholarship that is rooted in methodology – becomes something the audience can understand and experience. In Alfred Brendel, Georg Friedrich Haas and George Lewis, the festival brings three world- famous and influential personalities and thinkers from the world of music to Graz as key- note speakers. George Lewis will combine his lecture with a version of his piece for soloist and interactive grand piano. The presentations at ARTikulationen encompass many different formats such as keynotes, lecture recitals, guest talks, poster presentations and a round table on practices in artistic research.

The opening theme of the second movement is a predominant cyclic or ever-returning factor, assuming various transformations, also present in the finale “lento espressivo” section, as an undercurrent to the expressive romantic melody of the first violin. The thematic materials often evoke a certain mood or feeling associated with the Iranian Dastgah music, and include the use of microtones. In the title “Dreamland,” dream is meant to be understood as “maya” or illusion. Dreamland had its premiere in New York in May 2008, performed by members of the Bãrbad Chamber Orchestra, with Cyrus Beroukhim as its first violin, and Rãmin Heydarbeygi as its music director. Majd PENDAR for violin (2017) Pendar is a series of compositions for solo instruments.

  • Charlemagne Palestine 17 Mai – 19 Novembre 2017
    Dossier Exposition mahj.org de presse Charlemagne Palestine 17 mai – 19 novembre 2017 © Charlemagne Palestine Charlemagne Palestine 17 mai – 19 novembre 2017 Sculptures, peintures, installations visuelles et sonores, films et concerts... Charlemagne Palestine investit le mahJ à l’occasion d’une exposition personnelle, première du genre dans un musée français. Dans les écuries de l'hôtel de Saint-Aignan, il déploie une installation qui mêle œuvres historiques et nouvelles productions, faisant évoluer le visiteur au cœur de son univers foisonnant, où les peluches tiennent un rôle de premier ordre. Né à Brooklyn en 1947 sous le nom de Chaim Moshe Palestine, il rejoint, enfant, la chorale juive de Stanley Sapir pour atténuer par le chant les effets de son bégaiement. Élevé dans une famille originaire d’Odessa, il est partagé entre une éducation traditionnelle et son goût pour les formes artistiques expérimentales. Dès les années 1960, il évolue aux côtés de nombreuses figures de l'avant-garde new-yorkaise, dont La Monte Young, Terry Riley ou John Cage. Sa pratique du chant, du carillon, de l’orgue puis du piano lui permet de développer, à partir des années 1970, une relation physique et vibratoire à l’espace, à son corps et à ceux de l’auditoire. Ses performances s’adaptent aux contextes et aux instruments qu’il utilise, engendrant un dialogue avec les lieux qui le reçoivent. La dimension totale de sa démarche est à l’image des peluches qu’il recueille et expose : public idéal, totems, communauté choyée et perdue qu’il cherche à reconstruire, elles concrétisent aussi le caractère animiste de son œuvre.
