Composer Robert Jarvis' proposal Around North is a finalist for the controversial PRS New Music Award, a prize that encourages creators to "push the boundaries of their artistic practice." extend "the possibilities of music," and seeks to stimulate debate on the question: what is music? Robert's proposal is, in a sense, a 21st century music of the spheres (he consulted with fellow Kyma-ist and physicist David McClain to confirm the accuracy of the equations). You can hear more about the piece (and vote for it!) by visiting the Foundation website above. Voting ends at midnight, Sunday, 5th September, 2010.
