One of the highlights of our upcoming concert, New Music 101, is a segment we're calling "Composing and Cocktails." Here's how it works. Music "waiters" (composer Jakub Ciupinksi and conductor Andrew Cyr) will greet you with an iPhone that serves as a real-time composition system, networking wirelessly to Metropolis Ensemble musicians on laptops.
Jakub elaborates:
They can suggest certain choices from the "menu" of melodies, textures, dynamics, and the audience can choose whatever they would like to hear from the live musicians in any given moment.
Interested in a preview? We invite you to download the music menu and get a sneak-peak at our selections. The possibilities are truly endless!
