SOUND PORTRAITS Milan Institute for Musical Phonology

MILAN INSTITUTE FOR MUSICAL PHONOLOGY

EPISODE 18

This month we will be telling the story of the Milan Institute for Musical Phonology, a studio that for almost 30 years pushed the boundaries of electronic music and musique concrète, producing an enormous amount of incredible music. Berio, Maderna, Cage, Pousseur, Kayn are just a few of the composers involved. Lots of wonderful music to listen to + some words to set the frame. This episode of Sound Portraits Radio is hosted by Alessandro Onori.

About Sound Portraits

Sound Portraits is a series of lectures/listening sessions, curated by Doron Sadja, focusing on the work of iconic composers who have paved the way for contemporary electronic music. Started in 2015 as a live event at Spektrum in Berlin, the series quickly grew and exists now as both a live lecture series and a radio show on Cashmere Radio.  After an introduction of each artist’s life and work, we listen to a selection of excerpts and complete works from the artist’s repertoire. Besides providing an opportunity to introduce these seminal artists to a new audience, the Sound Portraits series also offers an open forum to engage in group listening in a quiet atmosphere. 

Doron Sadja is an American artist, composer, and curator whose work explores modes of perception and the experience of sound, light, and space. Find out more at www.doron.sadja.com
