Donemus Webshop — Arranz, Ángel

Ángel ARRANZ is a composer of instrumental and electronic music, focused on the development of interchangeable sound-based structures between instruments and electronics through spatialization. His music explores time as a constructional matter through mathematics, correlated spatiality in physical, structural, notational and DSP domains and organicism by means of the morphology of natural forms and fractal geometry.

During his formation in Spain, he was a private student of Alberto Posadas. After earning with honors a Degree in Composition at High Conservatory of Music of Salamanca, from 2006 on he fixed his residency in The Netherlands, accomplishing with distinction in 2008 a Master in Sonology at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. He received lessons from Paul Berg [algorithmic composition], Kees Tazelaar [voltage control techniques and analog studio], Johan van Kreij [Max/MSP], Paul Jeukendrup [sound engineering] and Richard Barrett [advanced composition]. Since 2009 Ángel Arranz occupies the position of Research Associate at the Institute of Sonology of The Hague and PhD Candidate at the University of Salamanca dissertating, between both institutions, on new technology applied to instrumental composition and electronic music.
