SUMMARY:Hildegard Westerkamp Birthday Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Hildegard Westerkamp hears the world differently than most people. Where many of us might hear noise\, she uncovers extraordinary beauty and meaning. It’s all in how we listen to our environment. After completing her music studies\, Hildegard joined the World Soundscape Project under the direction of Canadian composer R. Murray Schafer at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Vancouver. Her involvement with this project not only activated deep concerns about noise and the general state of the acoustic environment in her\, but it also changed her ways of thinking about music\, listening and soundmaking. Join us for this very special event as we celebrate Hildegard’s birthday! \nProgram NotesProgramme notes coming soon. \nDownload
