In Australia courtesy of the Australian Computer Music Association, Canadian Robert Normandeau is a world renowned electro acoustic composer with numerous awards (including Ars Electronica 1993 AND 1996), commissions (including Banff and GRM) and academic qualifications (including the first PhDMus in Electroacoustic Composition (1992), under Marcelle Deschênes and Francis Dhomont) to his name. After his early interests in instrumental and mixed works, his current endeavours are focused on acousmatic music. More specifically, his compositions employ esthetical criteria whereby he creates a ‘cinema for the ear’ in which ‘meaning’ as well as ‘sound’ become the elements that elaborate his works. Along with concert music he now writes incidental music, especially for the theatre. He has been Professor in electroacoustic music composition at Université de Montréal since 1999.
