Noh SeungJu

Born 1997 in Seoul. Composer based in Salzburg. 

Drawn especially to rhythm among musical parameters; equally to its expansion into the macro scale of temporal form. Interested in the relation between the acoustic as exhibition “frame” and the digital as exhibited “object,” and in the processes of reauratization arising therefrom. Thinking through the writing of acoustic music in an age when such writing seems impossible.

PhD in the Arts and Postgraduate (PGL) Composition at Mozarteum University Salzburg. Teaching assistant for a course in 20th/21st-century new-music aesthetics.

Participation in Lucerne Festival Composer Seminar, ARCO Academy, etc. Recipient of the International Stiftung Mozarteum’s Paumgartner Medal; second prize at the Bartók World Competition; selected for Land Salzburg’s annual music scholarship, etc.

Collaborations with Ensemble Modern, Ensemble Multilatérale, Ensemble TIMF, etc.

Upcoming: new commission for Ensemble PHACE to be premiered at Aspekte Festival.
