Cube Fest is an annual spatial music festival that brings together a group of international music and audio technology experts, computer engineers, musicians, and composers who will present performances of original compositions created for the Cube and preexisting works.
Sounds in Focus III Description:
"Sounds in Focus" presents a selection of works from artists around the world, played on the 24.4 channel Genelec system in the Perform Studio of the Moss Arts Center. The Perform Studio is a smaller, more intimate performance space that is ideal for precise and detailed listening to multichannel music. Guests who attend concerts in both Perform Studio and the Cube will develop a deeper appreciation for the range of artistic expression possible in different multichannel formats.
Tickets are $10.00 and free for Virginia Tech students.
