City of Floating Sounds (Part 1)

City of Floating Sounds is an invitation to connect with our surroundings and each other. Experience a shifting soundscape as you journey through the city. Can you find other audience members to create a richer sound? Pushing the boundaries of classical music performance, City of Floating Sounds uses cutting-edge creative technology to take music out into the city. Guided by a bespoke mobile app, make your way through the streets of New Haven listening to fragments of Huang Ruo’s meditative new work.As you get closer to the Green – and other audience members – the sound will expand, revealing more parts of the work. An opportunity to explore New Haven in a new light – the path you take and who you meet on your journey can all change what you hear.
