The Halloween Lecture Series, Andrew May
| 1:00pm |

Room 314C

Composer Andrew May views the score as a blueprint for a living relationship between composers and performers, the terms of which
are constantly evolving. Also a violinist, improviser, and computer
musician, May delights in blurring the distinctions between the various
categories of musician (performer, improviser, technician, composer).
Toward this end, several of his works make use of innovative notations
and interactive computer systems which give more responsibility and
authority to the performers. A Majority of May's compositions grow out
of intensive collaborations with other musicians.
