Professor Bad Trip - Ensemble Cerdd Newydd Cymru /New Wales Music

UPROAR Ensemble Cerdd Newydd Cymru / Ensemble Wales New Music Ensemble present Professor Bad Trip.

UPROAR’s new 2020 programme is dedicated to new electroacoustic composition. Three new homegrown commissions sit alongside three celebrated international works by pioneering electroacoustic composers. All specialise in the use of electronics to sculpt and manipulate the sound of traditional instruments to create new sonic experiences. Performed by UPROAR’s new music specialist musicians this is an evening of virtuosic work for anyone interested in the new frontiers of classical music and electronic sound.

UPROAR is the new music ensemble of Wales. Under the Artistic Direction of Michael Rafferty it brings to Wales and the UK the best international classical music written today. Working closely with composers and especially commissioning new work, this flexible ensemble brings vast experience of performing together as soloists and chamber musicians.
