Band Bio: •Writes and performs music for acoustic instruments and electroacoustic media. •Won six prizes in late 80s for five compositions ranging from chamber to orchestral to electroacoustic music including the Canada Council’s Grand Prize at the 8th CBC 8th National Competition for Young Composers for his live electronic work with tape, "El Reposo del Fuego." •Performs on special nylon-stringed MIDI-capable guitars made by Quebec luthier Godin, specializing in their transformation by electronic and computer processing (MAX/MSP). I also sometimes conduct my own music or mix a show of electroacoustic music. Music on CDs from empreintes DIGITALes, earsay, CBC Records, ZaDiscs, SNE and McGill University Records.
