Description
In the 1960s, Argentine-born composer Mario Davidovsky began his series of Synchronisms, which were some of the first compositions to integrate electronic sounds with acoustic instruments. In a discussion and performance of Davidovsky's Synchronisms No. 9 (1988), Dr. Jacqui Carrasco will highlight the composer's skill in combining romantic violin styles with sophisticated pre-recorded sounds to create a lush and beautiful modern masterpiece.
