face="Helvetica" size="3">The
2009 San Francisco Tape Music Festival, curated by sfSound's SF Tape
Music Collective, will take place this January 30th, 31st, and February
1st at CELLspace. The three night Festival of audio art will feature
classic as well as recent and new fixed media compositions by 30 local
and international composers. The expansive venue is uniquely suited to
shaping the sound which will be diffused live over a pristine surround
system consisting of 20+ speakers. Seated in the dark, it's a unique
opportunity to experience music forming, literally, around you. This
year marks both 50- and 60-year anniversaries, being 50 years since
many now-classic "tape music" pieces had their world premieres, and
being 60 years since Pierre Schaeffer presented "Concert de Bruits,"
the first concert of musique concrète. So over the three nights of the
Festival, works from these periods by Luciano Berio, György Ligeti,
Pierre Schaeffer, Edgard Varèse, Iannis Xenakis, as well as more recent
pieces by Paul Lansky, Paul McCartney, and others will be presented.
And in honor of Olivier Messiaen's 100th birth year his sole tape
piece "Timbres-Durées" (1952) will be presented. As in past annual SF
Tape Music Festivals, this year will also feature new works by several
local composers, including Ashley Bellouin, Kyle Bruckmann, George
Cremaschi, Janis Mercer, Maggi Payne, Moe! Staiano, Jon
Leidecker/Wobbly, Aaron Ximm, and premieres by SFTMC's own Thom Blum,
Cliff Caruthers, Matt Ingalls, and Kent Jolly. The annual SF Tape
Music Festival -- it's cinema for your ears!</font></div>

face="Helvetica" size="3">Over
the course of the Festival the San Francisco Tape Music Collective will
present two sound diffusion workshops, thanks to a grant from Meet the
Composer. Members will talk about and demonstrate the art of of
diffusion, and discuss approaches and solutions to composing music to
be spatialized. Attendees will have the opportunity to try out the
diffusion mixing board with assistance from the members. All
participating composers will talk about and take questions regarding
the Festival, tape music composition, and their works being presented
in the Festival. Check the Web site <a
