Adam Stanović
Adam Stanović
UK

Adam Stanović (né Stansbie) started composing electronic music over twenty-five years ago. Initial experiments with tape recorders and a four-track mini-disc player led him to read music and technology at both Leeds College of Music (England, UK) and University of Leeds (England, UK), where he was introduced to computer music by Dale Jonathan Perkins. During this time, he started to enjoy international performances of his musical works, and he ultimately graduated with a university prize for outstanding achievement. Adam Stanović went on to complete a PhD at City University, London (England, UK), where he devoted himself to acousmatic music under the supervision and guidance of Denis Smalley.Nowadays, Adam Stanović’s music continues to employ a fixed medium. Rather than purely acousmatic, however, his recent works have also included instruments, electronics, film, and animation. In all such cases, his musical works explore relations between pitch and noise. Still, it is the ongoing fascination with musical form that occupies the primary focus of his compositional attention. To date, this fascination has helped him to win prizes, residencies and mentions at competitions around the world, including: Bourges (France); Métamorphoses (Belgium); Destellos (Argentina); Contemporanea (Italy); SYNC (Russia); Música Viva (Portugal); Musica Nova (Czech Republic); Ars Electronica Forum Wallis (Switzerland); Klingler ElectroAcoustic Residency (KEAR, USA); Musicacoustica (China); Prix Russolo (France); and Red Jasper Award (USA).
