Compositeur, chef d’orchestre, pianiste, professeur, né à Rosario en
Argentine le 2 juin 1929, naturalisé canadien en 1976. Pianiste et
répétiteur au Teatro Colón (1959-65), il fut aussi boursier de
l’Instituto Torcuato di Tella de Buenos Aires (1963-64) où il
poursuivit des études avancées de composition et de musique
électronique. Une bourse Guggenheim lui facilita un séjour aux
États-Unis de 1965 à 1971. Au centre de musique électronique des
universités Columbia et Princeton, il travailla avec Vladimir
Ussachevsky en plus d’enseigner et de composer. En Amérique latine
aussi bien qu’aux États-Unis et au Canada, alcides lanza s’est appliqué
à faire connaître davantage la musique contemporaine et d’avant-garde,
à la fois comme pianiste et chef d’orchestre. À cet effet, il fonda le
Composers / Performers Group dont les présentations multimédias dans
plusieurs villes, telles New York et Montréal, ont soulevé de vives
controverses. Il s’établit à Montréal en 1971 pour enseigner la
composition à l’Université McGill et dirigea le studio de musique
électronique (EMS) de 1974 à 2004 avant d’en devenir Directeur
Emeritus. Les nombreuses œuvres d’alcides lanza font appel aux
instruments traditionnels, aux sons et extensions électroniques ainsi
qu’aux lumières. En 1975, il participa à l’organisation de la Semaine
des musiques nouvelles à Montréal au cours de laquelle fut présentée
son œuvre penetrations VII, avec le concours de sa femme, la comédienne
et chanteuse Meg Sheppard.<br>

Composer, conductor, pianist, teacher, b Rosario, Argentina, 2 Jun
1929, naturalized Canadian 1976. In Buenos Aires he studied piano with
Ruwin Erlich, conducting with Roberto Kinsky, and composition with
Julián Bautista and Alberto Ginastera. He was a pianist and
coach-accompanist 1959-65 at the Teatro Colón and received a
scholarship 1963-4 from the Instituto Torcuato di Tella of Buenos
Aires, where he took advanced studies in composition, including
electronic music. A Guggenheim fellowship assisted his stay 1965-71 in
the USA, and he worked with Vladimir Ussachevsky at the
Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, in addition to teaching and
composing. During this period he received grants from the Ford
Foundation in 1966 and the Pan American Union 1967-9. He studied
composition mainly with Olivier Messiaen, Riccardo Malipiero, Aaron
Copland, and Bruno Maderna, as well as piano with Yvonne Loriod.<br>
<br>
In Latin America, the USA, and Canada, Lanza has striven, both as
pianist and conductor, to promote contemporary and avant-garde music.
To this end he founded the Composers/Performers Group, whose multimedia
presentations in several cities, including New York and Montreal, have
aroused a great deal of controversy. While continuing to be active on
the international scene, he settled in Montreal in 1971 to teach
composition at McGill University and in 1974 became director of its
electronic music studio. In 1972 he conducted the SMCQ Ensemble and
presented works by Argentinian composers and his own composition
Eidesis II.<br>
In 1975, on commission for the SMCQ, Lanza wrote Plectros IV which was
premiered the same year by Bruce Mather and Pierrette LePage, to whom
the work was dedicated. Lanza's numerous works make use of traditional
instruments, of electronic sounds and extensions, and of lights. Many
are listed in the US catalogue of Boosey & Hawkes, which also
handles rental of material, tapes, and scores. Lanza owns Shelan
Editions which publishes and reproduces his works in the form of scores
and cassettes.<br>
Lanza was president of the Agrupacion Música Viva of Buenos Aires and
associate director of the Composers' Group for International
Performance. He was composer-in-residence 1972-3 at the Deutscher
Akademischer Austauschdienst of Berlin and toured Scandinavia and
Germany at that time. In 1975 he helped organize the Week of New Music
in Montreal, at which his work Penetrations VII was presented with the
participation of his wife, the actress and singer Meg Sheppard. In 1986
he and Sheppard toured Argentina and Brazil, performing more than 50
pieces of Canadian music. The next year he gave a five-hour recital
comprised of works by 27 composers from different countries, including
a few of his own pieces. Lanza has recorded piano works by Henry Cowell
(Little Concerto, McGill University Records 79008, released in 1980)
and Serge Perron (Fusion, McGill University Records 80011, released in
1981). He is a member of the CLComp and an associate of the Canadian
Music Centre.<br>
