Hearing Things: Music by Judith Shatin
Event notice! Due to a number of events on Grounds, Saturday, April 6th, please allow yourself ample time to secure parking.
A symposium on and concert of music by Judith Shatin, William R. Kenan Jr. Professor Emerita at UVA celebrates her contributions in acoustic, electroacoustic and digital media during her 39 years on the faculty of the McIntire Department of Music. First trained as an acoustic composer, she was an early adopter of digital technologies, founding the Virginia Center for Computer Music in 1987-88 and establishing both undergraduate and graduate curricula combining acoustic and digital music. The symposium features Denise Von Glahn, Curtis Mayes Orpheus Professor of Musicology and Director of the Center for Music of the Americas at Florida State University as well as two of Shatin’s PhD advisees. These include Steven Kemper, now Assistant Professor at Rutgers University and Juraj Kojs, Assistant Professor at the University of Miami. In addition, Shatin will join all three for a panel discussing her work.
