Overview

Professor of Composition

Co-Dean for Research, College of Arts, Humanities and Social Science

 

Email: a.p.lewis@bangor.ac.uk

Phone: 01248 382188

Location: Music Building

Website: www.andrewlewis.org.uk

Andrew Lewis is an award-winning composer and an internationally recognised figure in the field of acousmatic composition. His more recent work includes more music for orchestras and ensembles, but retains a strong interest in the materiality of sound, and the use of technology to realise new kinds of musical ideas. He is especially interested in spatial sound, in the relationship between 'real-world' and 'abstract' sounds, and in the phenomena of aural perception as part of the creative process.

Teaching and Supervision

Undergraduate and Taught Postgraduate modules:

  • Sonic Art
  • Music Since 1850
  • The Nineteenth Century Symphony
  • Interactive Sound and Music
  • Composition
  • Acousmatic Composition
  • Composition in Context

I am currently main supervisor for three PhD's in composition and electroacoustic composition:

  • Sara Pinheiro: Acousmatic Foley
  • Hu Yu: Nuo Opera in Acousmatic Music
  • Shen Lin: Chinese Folk Music in Interactive and Acousmatic Music

Recently completed PhD projects in Composition:

  • Katherine Betteridge: Nature and Magic – Rediscovering Connections (2020)
  • Steven Tunnicliffe: Perception and Structure in Electroacoustic Music (2019)
  • Richard Garrett: Generative Music from Fuzzy Logic and Probability (2017)
  • Emmannouil Gregoriadis: An Invitation to Listen: exploring engagement in technologically mediated music (2016)

Research Interests

Recent projects include the audiovisial work 'LEXICON' (funded by the Wellcome Trust) which was seen live by more than 1700 people during its UK tour, and 'Fern Hill' for orchestra and electronics, which was commissioned for the BBC National Orchestra of Wales for the centenary celebrations of Dylan Thomas, and broadcast live on BBC Radio 3. This work won first prize in the KLANG! competition, Montpellier, and was given its French premiere there by the Orchestre national Montpellier Occitanie. In 2016 he was awarded a Leverhulme Research Fellowship to compose a large scale work for orchestra and electronics featuring the voices of people with dementia and their partners who care for them ('Lebenslieder'). The resulting work was awarded second prize in the KLANG! competition, Montpellier, in 2018. In 2019 'Straatmuziek' for flute, clarinet, piano and electronics was one of only two works chosen to represent Wales at the ISCM World Music Days in Estonia. In 2018 he was one of ten composers from Wales commissioned for the debut concert of the UPROAR Ensemble, and in 2020 completed a new commission them for ensemble and electronics, for a tour in the UK and Europe.

Numerous recordings are available, including two collections of his works: 'Miroirs obscurs' and 'Au-dèla' (empreintes DIGITALes) as well as 'Schattenklavier' on Shadow Piano (Innova).  His instrumental and vocal music is published by Composers Edition, and his acousmatic music by Ymx média, Montréal (electrocd.com).

Postgraduate Project Opportunities

I mainly supervise composition PhDs, especially those involving acousmatic music, and music for live instruments with electronics. I am interested in compositional approaches and strategies, technological development of compositional tools (including software development), and aesthetic and cultural issues (for example, the role of perception and cognition in acousmatic music, and the performance and public reception of music involving technology). Examples of recently completed composition PhD projects I have supervised include "Exploring Engagement in Technologically Mediated Music", "Generative Music from Fuzzy Logic and Probability" and "Perception and Structure in Electroacoustic Music".

  • Listening to the Lakes: what lakes are telling us about climate change, and how we can listen to them

    Composer Andrew Lewis and scientist Iestyn Woolway discuss how lakes can help us understand climate change, and how this data can be used to make music. Lakes and reservoirs are a critical natural resource, supporting biodiversity and providing many benefits to people around the world. But lakes are critically susceptible to climate change, especially the increase in global temperatures. Climatic warming can have a huge influence on the physical environment of lakes, including warming of surface water and effects on water levels Ultimately, the physical environment of lakes is responding dramatically to a warming world. In this talk, Iestyn Woolway will discuss the response of key lake variables to climate change, and Andrew Lewis will explain how this data has been used in composing his new piece ‘Two Lakes’.
