The goal of Circuit Bridges is to bring the electroacoustic community together to present our music to audiences all over the world.

Circuit Bridges has a hub based in New York City at Gallery MC which presents monthly concerts with Vox Novus and the New York City Electroacoustic Music Society.

Vox Novus

Vox Novus is a new music production and promotion company. It specializes in empowering contemporary musicians and living composers. Vox Novus accomplishes its mission through several of its successful programs: 60x60, Composer's Voice, and Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame.

Artistic Director and Curator - David Morneau is a composer of an entirely undecided genre. Described by Molly Sheridan as a "shining beacon" of inspiration, his diverse work illuminates ideas about our culture, issues concerning creativity, and even the very nature of music itself. His eclectic output has been described variously as "elegantly rendered", "happily prissy", "impressive", "unusual, esoteric, and offbeat". His recent album, Broken Memory, "absolutely wrecks shop.… For that, David Morneau wins." Morneau views concert curation as a compositional act. He aims to assemble programs that reflect his own diverse interests as well as bringing together composers and performers who are able to make their musical marks. His curatorial experience includes nine Composer's Voice concerts in New York City. He has also curated an exchange concert series between The Ohio State University and Michigan State University. As Artistic Director for Circuit Bridges he plans to bring together interesting and diverse composers to build bridges between scenes, regions, and schools of thought.

A producer of new music and multi-media concerts and events, Voisey is best known for producing the 60x60 project, which he started in 2003 in order to promote contemporary composers and their music. He also founded the Composer's Voice Concert Series as well as the chamber music project Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame.

GALLERY MC NEW YORK

GALLERY MC NEW YORK is a non-profit multicultural interdisciplinary art gallery committed to the research, production, presentation and interpretation of contemporary art. The gallery supports emerging artists and explores ideas at the junction of arts, performance, and architecture.

Critically acclaimed composer Milica Paranosic has established herself as one of New York’s finest and most daring composers, performance artists, producers, and technologists. The New York Times described her music as: “Amazing…astonishing,” and, “Like liquor-filled pralines,” by Germany’s Morgenpost; “A painter, a musical Jackson Pollack,” by SEAMUS. Milica’s works range from one-woman multimedia shows and sound installations to operatic and symphonic works. Inspired by her travels and international collaborations, Milica ingeniously incorporates music of her Serbian homeland in addition to cross-continental influences, such as the ones of Brazil, Ghana and China. Milica strives to create new sound worlds in which contrasting concepts vividly coexist in unique textures. Circuit Bridges is a co-production with Milica Paranosic and Gallery MC.
