Musiques & Recherches is a space for creation, research, promotion, information and production of electroacoustic music and more precisely acousmatic music. This association has composition studios, regularly welcomes artists in residence, and helps amateur and professional artists, performers and creators who are interested in electroacoustic production.
From 2023 onwards, Musiques & Recherches will launch a call for residencies in acousmatic composition for composers under the age of 35, under the patronage of the Annette Vande Gorne Foundation. This recently created foundation has given itself the statutory mission, among others, of supporting the creation of acousmatic works by young composers in order to increase and perpetuate the repertoire.
Selected candidates will undertake a residency of 2-3 weeks, preferably in June or July 2023, during which they will complete a multiphonic composition project (between 3 and 16 channels). The finished piece will be programmed in the Lisboa Incomum concert in Lisbon, Portugal, as part of the concert season of the DME project. Residents will also be invited to attend the next edition of the international acousmatic festival L’Espace du Son in Brussels.
The programme provides accommodation, a grant of up to €2500 to cover travel and living expenses, and a supplement of €250 at the end of the residency for the completed composition.
Candidates should have a maximum age of 35 years old in 2023.
