JOAN BAGÉS RUBI

His sound work focuses on instrumental music, electroacoustic music, sound installations and interactive musical systems. Far from addressing these creative facets as independent elements, his work traces a continuum based on the creation of networks between these disciplines. What unifies his creative work is the permanent research in what he calls the «Spectrum-morphological composition by differentiated layers in a holophonic creation frame». At the same time, he draws graphic notation systems derived from conventional notation, uses and creates interactive musical systems , and has developed the concept of "sonorous score". 

 

Afterwards to obtain the Title of piano teacher at the Music Conservatory “Liceu” of Barcelona he carried out the Master of Digital Arts - Music at the U.P.F. of Barcelona.
