Graduation

I graduated last week from my DPhil in Music Composition from the University of Sussex.  Stephen Fry received his honorary doctorate at the same time so I was in good company!

This entry was posted in Composition, Words and tagged Stephen Fry, Sussex University, University of Sussex on February 1, 2011 by Ben.

Check out this cool album by Southampton PhD composer Blake Troise @PROTODOME: protodome.bandcamp.com/album/… Was such a pleasure supervising Blake over the course of his PhD. I didn't always understand what he was talking about but love the music...

I'm composing short pieces for cohabiters. Today I'm writing for Gijs (viola), Elsa (gr3 violin), Janneke (gr1 cello) & Vicky (c/bass clarinet). Tomorrow for Anna (oboe), @benolivermusic (piano), Joni (gr1 cello) and Stan (untrained percussion). If you'd like a piece, DM me.

Here is “Hedgehog”, a micro-piece for nine isolated musicians. I sent each player an individual part with a click track, and asked them to video themselves playing it on their phone. I provided no further clues as to what it was all about... #StayAtHomeAndStaySafe pic.twitter.com/DuV06fDvlp
