Patrick Ascione

about

Patrick Ascione (Paris, France, 1953) began composing in 1976 and shortly after joined the team of the Institut International de Musique Electroacoustique de Bourges (IMEB, France) which he subsequently left in 1984. He approaches at the same time the composition by computer as the IRCAM (Research institute and coordination acoustics / music). He has pursued his activities independently and has produced a series of pieces, the majority of which have been commissions from the Groupe de recherches musicales of the Institut national de l’audiovisuel (Ina-GRM) in Paris (France). He teaches the acousmatic composition to the Conservatoire of La Rochelle, based a course of electroacoustic music to the Conservatoire of Cherbourg in 2003 by means of the DRAC Basse-Normandie, and intervenes as trainer in the CeFEDeM of Normandy. He participates in international juries of competition of acousmatic composition in France and abroad. Two distinct esthetic periods characterize his course of work: during the first, from 1977 to 1987, the composer placed an emphasis on the ties unifying acousmatic art and painting; ties arising from the use of a common permanent working surface which permits the painter to directly place his colors on the canvas just as the composer immediately captures sonorities on magnetic tape… He expressed this analogy and attempted to explore its ramifications in virtually all the works of this period (Métamorphose d’un jaune citron, 1978, Bleus et formes, 1981…).
