• E-live 2010

  

  The E-live concert is part of a festival for New Music.
  Performers and musicians/composers from the Utrecht school of the Arts, performed their pieces in this beautiful location:

  The Nicolaïkerk (St. Nicholas church) is a medieval church in the southern part of the old city of Utrecht in the Netherlands. This building is the home of two very interesting instruments, the organ built by Marcussen and the carillon built by the famous Hemony brothers (17th century). These instruments are the backbone for a series of concerts, which are organised each year by the Stichting Culturele Evenementen Nicolaïkerk (Foundation for Cultural Events in the Nicolaïkerk ).

  

  

  Augusto’s piece ‘Landschappen’ was performed at this concert, which involved a modern dance improvisation.
  Collaboration with:  Sara Licher, Arianna Cattini, Wim h. De Vries.
  Also, he collaborated with Arjan de Wit and Michael Dzjaparidze for a second e-live performance.
  Together they did an experiment with software programming and classical instruments. Augusto was involved in the composing process.
  The end result is ‘Concensual science’.
