Stereo Type (Puw)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stereo Type is a piece by the contemporary Welsh composer Guto Puw. It was commissioned for the 2005 Bangor New Music Festival, of which Puw is the Chairman and Artistic director.[1]

The piece, which lasts ten minutes, is written for the unusual combination of amplified typewriters and tape. It was billed as "A sonic journey from the past to the present."[2] It was premiered by students from the School of Music of the University of Wales, Bangor, where Puw is a Lecturer. The first performance took place on 5 March 2005 in the Deiniol Shopping Centre, Bangor.[3] The performance was featured on the S4C television programme Y Sioe Gelf on 20 March 2005.[4]
