Acousmonium 2023

Mittwoch, 08. März, bis Freitag, 10. März 2023, jeweils um 19:00 Uhr

International festival of multichannel electroacoustic music.
Curated by Anton Iakhontov and Armando Balice
Coordination: Petra Leisentritt

co-production of the Floating Sound Gallery Vienna, Alcôme and echoraum

ACOUSMONIUM festival was launched by the Floating Sound Gallery as an annual platform for international artists in 2018 at the New Stage of Alexandrinsky Theater St.Petersburg. It offers a platform of the “loudspeakers orchestra”, proposed by Francois Bayle in 1974 as an environment for live concert situation of electronically made music, to communicate the works of experimental genres. This year we enjoy the collaboration with two contemporary classics – Alcôme from France, who are not only bringing their program but also their loudspeakers system, and Diapason, pioneers of multichannel in New York.
