It was a long-distance duet — a violist on Faculty Glade and a carillonist (UC Berkeley Carillonist, Jeff Davis) in the towering Campanile. They couldn’t see or communicate with each other, but their Thursday noontime concert, part of a music department course called Music Now, was a successful exercise in performing across a large space.
Here's a preview of upcoming events at CNMAT for Fall 2018 and Spring 2019:
Concert , September 2018
Carl Stone + Soo Yoen Lyuh - Haegeum
Sponsored by composers, Clara Olivares and Curtis Rumrill

CNMAT and the Department of Music are excited to have their two new cornerstone courses in Music and Technology included in the new BCDI! The two new courses, Music 158A (Sound and Music Computing with CNMAT Technologies) and Music 158B (Situated Instrument Design for Musical Expression), were developed with grant support from the Digital Humanities at Berkeley. The new course development grants provided the opportunity for CNMAT to further integrate its 25-year legacy of research and digital tool development into the life of the University.
As part of the on-going exchange between student composers at Stanford and CAL, CNMAT and graduate composers at Berkeley hosted a luncheon, and included the Mivos Quartet who are currently in residence with Department of Music.
