Louis Goldford Receives Commission From Longleash Trio and Research Grant

February 10, 2023

Louis Goldford has received a commission from the Longleash Trio for a new work to be premiered in 2024, supported by the Research-Creation Grant from the ACTOR Project (Analysis, Creation, and Teaching of Orchestration) along with colleagues in ACTOR's Voice Timbre Workgroup. Louis and fellow researchers at the Laboratoire de recherche sur le geste musicien at the Université de Montreal and at McGill's Music Perception and Cognition Lab will conduct a novel study on vocal timbre within instrumental genres of music, the outcome of which Louis will use in the pre-compositional stages of a new work for The Longleash Trio in New York, with 2024 engagements in Montreal and New York.

Congratulations, Louis!
