Ihis podcast is always interesting and now features some new acousmatic compositions.
Kevin will be in conversation with acousmatic composer Adam Asnan who amongst other things explores Pierre Schaeffer‘s theories and incorporates these ideas in his own contemporary works. The term acousmatic comes from the Greek akousmatikoi, the name of the esoteric disciples who listened to lectures that Pythagoras gave out loud from behind a veil.
To unveil something of the acoustmatic sound in part 1 of the Art of Listening, we will be listening to a selection of new compositions and artists from London based label entr’acte – artists like Lee Gamble whose work floats and stretches the contours of sound, getting underneath and inbetween, like an ‘inner space’ probe.

Sixty years of electroacoustic music are profiled.
This concert de bruits was a red-letter day in the annals of modern music. It was the moment when musique concrète – made from sounds recorded out in the world, rather than musical notes – came out from the laboratory and into public view. The man behind it was a quiet, intense telecommunications engineer turned composer named Pierre Schaeffer. For months he had been working in the radio station‘s studio, shaping the sounds he had recorded into a musical form.
