Description

The ten "Quantum Dances" are intense compositions performed on an orchestra of electronic instruments. Not for background ambiance, this is maximalist music that requires serious listening. Complex, energetic, and powerful, some of the dances employ frequently shifting tempos and rhythms. Others use languorous melodies over slowly evolving harmonies and timbres.

Artist Profile
Glenn Meade, composer and sound designer, has been writing contemporary orchestral, chamber, vocal, and musical-dramatic works since 1975. He received his musical education at the the Peabody and American Conservatories of Music, and has had numerous works performed by professional ensembles. Introduced to MIDI control of synthesizers and audio processors in 1986, he became quickly proficient at using the technology to produce dynamic and complex works for a "synthesizer orchestra". While continuing to write new works for both acoustic and electronic media, he has been designing sound for film, video, and theatrical productions, and teaching electronic composition.
