|
The Tenerife International Film Music Festival and the most important private university in this field have signed an international cooperation agreement. The result is a workshop to be held at TEA on July 12 and 13.
The Tenerife public can get, for the first time, full information about all the aspects of the creative and industry process that take place when a soundtrack is produced
The VI Tenerife International Film Music Festival (FIMUCITÉ), which will be held from July 7 to 14, sponsored by Cabildo Insular de Tenerife, Canary Islands Government and Santa Cruz and Arona City Councils, has signed its first international cooperation agreement with the most important private university of modern music in the World, the Berklee College of Music, where professional musicians, students and general public, will enjoy a unique workshop where accomplished international professionals will share their talents to explain the process of producing a soundtrack as well as of creating music for an audiovisual project.
Against all adversity and with its customary self-improvement spirit, resulting in new agreements and innovative offers, FIMUCITÉ have programmed the workshop “The road to Film Scoring” with the cooperation of Promusic, the Professional Musicians Association from the Canary Islands, at TEA (Tenerife Espacio de las Artes) on July 12 and 13. Divided into two strands of work, the first one dealing with training and production, and the second one with composition and interpretation, the different panels will have professionals such as Andrew Hill, Grammy Award winner, Walt Disney Pictures vice president of music production for the decade known as “the Disney Renaissance”, and, nowadays, the Director of the Scoring for Film, Television and Video Games Master’s Degree Program for Berklee College of Music in Valencia.
Robert Townson, record producer for the prestigious label Varèse Sarabande, will be another member of this pioneering group of talented professionals in Tenerife, as well as Pete Anthony, one of the busiest conductors and orchestrators in the Hollywood film industry, with more than 20 years in the business, working on over 300 films with top composers such as James Newton Howard or Danny Elfman. Robert Piaskowski, Artistic Director of other of the most important film music events in Europe, the Film Music Festival in Krakow, and Diego Navarro, film music composer and director of FIMUCITÉ, will also take part as professionals in this special workshop.
