Concert Presentations

Since 2014, each year’s JTTP 1st prize winner is presented in the annual Akousma festival, an annual festival of digital immersive music produced in Montréal since 2005.

The composers of the top 5 placing works from each edition are invited to present their works in a recurring event that “roams” annually to a different prestigious international context. 1[1. This recurring activity was first held in Seia, Portugal, where JTTP 2014 winners presented their work in the 21st Dias de Música Electroacústica (DME, February 2015). Subsequently, JTTP 2015 winners participated in the KONTAKTE festival in Berlin, Germany (September 2015) and JTTP 2016 winners travelled to Morelia, Mexico, where they were welcomed by the Centro Mexicano para la Música y Artes Sonoras (CMMAS) for a concert of their works (April 2017).] The winning composers from JTTP 2017 are featured in a concert that is part of the third Sea of Sound Festival (Edmonton, 12–14 April 2017), a co-production of BEAMS — Boreal Electroacoustic Music Society and the University of Alberta’s Department of Music.
