Electronic Music

I've really starting understanding the advances that we have made with sound. Being a part of the NYU New Music Ensemble I have seen how electronic sources can help further you as a musician. Improvising over electronic scores has given me a chance to better my ear. Coming from a classical musician, and now having to think outside the box, playing by ear was never an option. I love that I can pick things up more quickly and not depend on just the sheet music I have in front of me. Electronic music is not accepted by all, but I think being in an ensemble would give musicians a different perspective on the issue. Technology has made all of this possible. With all the new programs, such as eyes-web, you can create and make almost any sound or look you want.
