The Spatial Music Collective is a group of like-minded Dublin-based composers working in the field of spatial music. Over the past four years, they have presented performances of new musical works with a dynamic and novel spatial component, incorporating both electronic and acoustic forces.
Following a successful series of tape concerts in 2007, last year brought new developments with the aid of Arts Council support, including performances in collaboration with the New Dublin Voices (January, TCD Chapel) and the Bridgewood Ensemble (June, SS Michael & John).
The collaboration with the New Dublin Voices included the prizewinning Sea Swell by Enda Bates (prizewinner at the 37th Florilege Vocal de Tours). The Bridgewood Ensemble concert was described by Michael Dungan in The Irish Times as “fresh and sincere and, in a way, utilitarian, taking the string quartet as just one more creative vehicle among many”.
