Timeline
Mario Davidovsky (March 4, 1934 – August 23, 2019) was an Argentine-American composer.
In 1958, he studied with Aaron Copland and Milton Babbitt at the Berkshire Music Center (now the Tanglewood Music Center) in Lenox, Massachusetts.
Through Babbitt, who worked at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, and others, Davidovsky developed an interest in electroacoustic music.
Born in Argentina, he emigrated in 1960 to the United States, where he lived for the remainder of his life.
He is best known for his series of compositions called Synchronisms, which in live performance incorporate both acoustic instruments and electroacoustic sounds played from a tape.
Davidovsky was born in Médanos, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, a town nearly 600 km southwest of the city of Buenos Aires and close to the seaport of Bahía Blanca.
Aged seven, he began his musical studies on the violin.
At thirteen he began composing.
He studied composition and theory under Guillermo Graetzer at the University of Buenos Aires, from which he graduated.
Copland encouraged Davidovsky to emigrate to the United States, and in 1960, Davidovsky settled in New York City, where he was appointed associate director of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center.
It was at that time he began to compose electo-acoustic works called Synchronisms.
Davidovsky married Elaine Blaustein in 1962; she died in 2017.
They had two children, and three grandchildren.
During his career, Davidovsky has also taught at many other institutions: University of Michigan (1964), the Di Tella Institute of Buenos Aires (1965), the Manhattan School of Music (1968–69), Yale University (1969–70), and the City College of New York (1968–80).
He served on the composition faculty of Mannes College The New School for Music.
Most of his published compositions since the 1970s have been nonelectronic.
Davidovsky's association with the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center continued, and from 1981 to 1993 he was the lab's director as well as professor of music at Columbia.
In 1982, Davidovsky was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
His only published electroacoustic compositions since that time are Synchronisms No. 9 (1988) and Synchronisms No. 10 (1992).
However, Davidovsky received a commission by a group led by the Society for Electro-Acoustic Music in the United States (SEAMUS) to compose two more electroacoustic works in the Synchronisms series.
In 1994 he became professor of music at Harvard.
No. 11 and No. 12 premiered in 2007 at the SEAMUS National Conference in Ames, Iowa.
He died in New York City on August 23, 2019, at the age of 85.
