ILIO Brings Vienna to Juilliard

Prestigious Music School Invites ILIO to Present Vienna Symphonic Library to Students.

On May 10, The Juilliard School hosted team members from ILIO to present the Vienna Symphonic Library products to its composition students. Attendees were treated to a presentation of scores created in Avid’s Sibelius scoring software and rendered as musical performances using the Vienna Symphonic Library’s orchestral sounds and instrument software. The students in attendance included undergraduate composition students in addition to graduate students.

Juilliard’s Wayne Oquin, professor of theory and graduate studies and chair of Juilliard’s long-standing ear training department who hosted the event, states, “The room was packed with young composers, many of whom will graduate next week. We also had a fair amount of adults invited from Juilliard’s Evening Division. ILIO’s Daniel Hange and Roger Mawer were fantastic–consummate professionals. The presentation was very informed and inspired. Afterward, they stayed around to answer questions from the students.” Dr. Oquin, an accomplished composer, is an enthusiastic endorser of the Vienna Symphonic Library, having used it extensively in his professional and academic work.

ILIO’s Mark Hiskey adds, “We were honored to be invited to present at one of the world’s most celebrated music schools. The Vienna Symphonic Library, which we support in North America, is a rigorously sampled orchestral sample collection, with the most comprehensive set of articulations and advanced technology in the field, enabling a high level of creative, artistic freedom that Juilliard’s gifted students can appreciate.”
