A week-long festival of electroacoustic music takes place at the Project Arts Centre this March.

Electro Acoustic Revue (EAR), will present Ear-Drum, a series of six electroacoustic concerts centred on the theme of percussion at the Project Arts Centre. The diverse programme includes music for multichannel tape, diffused over a ‘virtual’ loudspeaker orchestra, as well as works for percussion with mixed ensemble and live electronics.

Highlights of the week will include a concert of Austrian and German music for percussion and electronics, and an evening of music from the San Francisco Tape Music Collective, featuring works by Pauline Oliveros, Matt Ingalls, Kent Jolly, James Tenney, and the Irish premiere of Golden by Brian Eno, the godfather of ambient music.

Ear-Drum Festival is grant aided by the Arts Council and supported by the Goethe Institute.

The festival runs from Tuesday 27 until Saturday 31 March, Project Arts Centre, Temple Bar, Dublin. See Calendar for details.
