Stereo Type
Stereo Type is a piece by the contemporary Welsh composer Guto Puw. It was commissioned for the 2005 Bangor New Music Festival, of which Puw is the Chairman and Artistic director.[1]
The piece, which lasts ten minutes, is written for the unusual combination of amplified typewriters and tape. The tape part was created and realised by Ed Wright[2], a student at Bangor University at the time. Stereo Type was billed as "A sonic journey from the past to the present."[3] It was premiered by students from the School of Music of the University of Wales, Bangor, where Puw is a Lecturer. The first performance took place on 5 March 2005 in the Deiniol Shopping Centre, Bangor.[4] The performance was featured on the S4C television programme Y Sioe Gelf on 20 March 2005.[5]
