We look for participants for the composition of acousmatic music for children. Our aim is to launch an important piece production with the help of the acousmatic / electroacoustic community. The purpose is to raise young audience awareness regarding acousmatic music. Through educational workshops for beginners and training in acousmatics, the repertory will be promoted and be made available to th
e public and the participants. During the “Sound Week” (la “Semaine du Son”), which will take place between January 21st and 27th in Belgium, 10 works selected by the organisers will be performed on the acousmonium of “Musiques & Recherches”
Concerts for children will be held on Wednesday, January 23rd 2013 at “Espace Senghor” (Brussels Cultural Centre). The audience will consist of children aged 10 to 12 from the neighbouring schools. The deadline for submissions is December 31st, 2012. The theme of the repertory is "Birth". The style is free and all forms are welcome. Please, remember that these pieces are intended to awaken curiosity in children, so we encourage you to think of a didactic approach. Our aim is to share these works with a larger audience. We will provide teachers and educational stakeholders with explanatory support on acousmatics. We will add selected pieces to the Electrodoc database:
