BIOGRAPHY Bernhard Gal / Austria The composer and artist Bernhard Gal (a.k.a. gal) creates electro-acoustic music as well as compositions for acoustic instruments. In his intermedia art projects and sound installations Gal combines sound, light, objects, video projections and spatial concepts. Born in Vienna, Austria in 1971, Gal began to nurture his interest in music and (sound) art around 1985. After studies at Vienna's University of Music (Sound engineering) and the University of Vienna (Musicology), and a year-long residency in New York City in 1997-98, he decided to focus on his compositional and artistic activities. Since 1998 Gal works as a freelance composer and artist. In 2003 he received a fellowship of the DAAD artist-in-residence program in Berlin. Currently Gal lives and works in Berlin and Vienna. Gal's work has been presented in concerts, sound installations and exhibitions in Europe, Asia and the Americas and performed by ensembles such as China Found Music Workshop Taiwan, NewTon-Ensemble Vienna, Kammerensemble Neue Musik Berlin und Ensemble Noamnesia Chicago. He was invited to international music and art festivals (e.g. Wien Modern Festival; Jeunesse-Festival Vienna; Kryptonale Berlin, ICMC Berlin; MaerzMusik Berlin; Inventionen Berlin; MATA Festival New York; New Sound, New York-Festival, NYC; Soundfield Festival Chicago; Musashino Public Art Festival Tokyo) and frequently gives lectures and workshops. |
