DeutschStéphane Roy (composer)
Stéphane Roy is an acousmatic composer. His art esthetics allow him, after thorough experimentations with sound materials, to extract expressive properties and give these works teleological motion. His works have been programmed throughout Europe and the Americas. His latest album, L’inaudible, received the 2019-2020 Prix Opus — Album of the year, Electroacoustic Music.
Born in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Roy earned both a doctorate degree in electroacoustic composition and a PhD in musicology from the Université de Montréal. He is the author of L'analyse des musiques électroacoustiques: Modèles et propositions (published 2003, Paris; 2003-04 Prix Opus — Book of the Year), a book on electroacoustic music analysis.[1][2] He has taught composition, auditory perception and electroacoustic music analysis in various universities and music conservatories, in Québec and abroad. Once in a while he gives lectures on electroacoustic music analysis.
Stéphane Roy is an Associate Composer of the Canadian Music Centre (CMC), and his works have been published on audio support by various labels, including empreintes DIGITALes (Kaleidos, 1996; Migrations, 2003; L’inaudible, 2019). He lives in Brossard, Quebec, Canada.[1]
