Oscar Bettison & La Arqueología del Neón Open Forms
-
- Musica
Composer Oscar Bettison has been a friend and long-time collaborator to the Talea Ensemble. Most recently, we've been working with Oscar on his new work, La Arqueología del Neón, which was commissioned by the Fromm Music Foundation. We had a fun time recording the piece in collaboration with the Time Spans Festival and are looking forward to sharing it with you all in an online listening event on Wednesday, May 12, 2021!
Oscar is on the composition faculty at the Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University, where Talea did a virtual residency with student composers last December. Talea's production manager Victoria Cheah sat down with Oscar to talk about his recent work, composing and collaborating online during the COVID-19 pandemic, reshaping academia for the present, and more.
