Welsh Music Ensemble. UPROAR returns with a programme dedicated to new electroacoustic composition. Three homegrown commissions sit alongside three celebrated international works by pioneering electroacoustic composers. All specialise in the use of electronics to sculpt and manipulate the sound of traditional instruments to create new sonic experiences. Performed by UPROAR's new music specialist musicians this is an evening of virtuosic work for anyone interested in the new frontiers of classical music and electronic sound. We commissioned three new 8-minute works for large ensemble and live electronics from 3 welsh composers Sarah Lianne Lewis, Bethan Morgan Williams and Andrew Lewis. These works sit alongside those of three international electroacoustic pioneers emerging from the ‘Spectral Movement' in Paris, Tristan Murail, Fausto Romitelli and Kaija Saariaho.
