Taylor Horton's electroacoustic music composition, The Empyrean for computer playback, was one of only six undergraduate works performed at the Society for Electroacoustic Music in the United States (SEAMUS) National Conference in Miami this past semester. The conference is the premier event for the introduction of new electroacoustic works in the United States. Her work was actually a homework assignment from Peter Rothbart's Digital Recording and Editing class.
