Abstract:
Electronic music undergraduate and graduate teaching is mainly characterized by a strong theoretical basis and the practical approach is often proposed during the last part of the academic programme. Also, the resources used for electronic music production are available in the last years of academic studies, but not during the early stage of the career of the musician who graduates in electroacoustic composition. Moreover, the recent pandemic situation and the need for online teaching has exacerbated some of these problems. Lack of specific material for each student and recording studios, the need of specific knowledge in analogical & digital electronics and programming languages potentially lead to inequality between different institutions with similar programmes. The goal of this research is the presentation of a practical workflow for ready-to-use tools in electroacoustic music teaching in Italian and French academic institutions. A sustainable approach in terms of availability of
the tools (from an economic point of view and easiness of use) is proposed in this research work. The proposal is divided into an overview on the situation of the studies in the electroacoustic music domain in Italy and in France, a brief description of the tools proposed for a sustainable teaching and a practical example. This consists of two short instrumental pieces with live electronics.
