Today we chat with Jerome Begin, an American composer and musician based in New York. We talk about his musical journey, how he approached modular synthesizers and why, and take a look at his compositional approach through the commissioned score he wrote for the Douglas Dunn dance company.
Jerome is currently Music Advisor at the Juilliard School Dance Division, and has composed many scores for dance, theater, concert works, installation and film performed worldwide. In his current works, he is mostly working on the interaction between electronic devices and acoustic instruments.
