Biophony Project with Metropolis Ensemble

  • Bryant Park- Josephine Shaw Lowell Memorial Fountain New York, NY, 10018 United States (map)

Calliope Brass is thrilled to take part in this project with the Metropolis Ensemble.

77 composers have been commissioned to create flexible, open-score pieces for outdoor performance and infinite combinations of instruments.

Participants will be given a LISTENING MAP to inspire them to move freely and discover their own individual paths and listening points. 

50+ musicians representing all the instrument families will divide into 20 or more pods and spread throughout a large geographic area.

Stake out a grassy spot or chase sounds and locations you are curious about: each person will experience BIOPHONY in their own way.
