The International Festival of Spectral Music presents SPECTRUM XXI Seventh Edition ELECTRONIC MUSIC by spectral composers Music by Iancu Dumitrescu Ana-Maria Avram Tim Hodgkinson Steve Noble Bergersen Quartet and Yoni Silver “Both Avram and Dumitrescu are convinced that if they have been able to open new doors in music it is because they have made or found precisely those connections bandween musical activity and inner life that remain unarticulated in conventional musical training. This is not however simply a matter of theit philosophy and motivation as artists. The psychological reality if their music is directly grounded in a conception of the acoustic reality iof sound.” Tim Hodgkinson “Musicworks” No 71 Summer 1998Toronto.
