Changing Voices responds to the idea of connections — composer to performer; humans to nature; technology to music — and how it is integrated into the fabric of music-making and always evolving. This concert’s performances feature the Bergamot String Quartet as well as select composers performing their own works.
The 26th annual MATA Festival will be presented over four nights at Fotografiska New York, reflecting a newly forged relationship between the MATA Festival and the famed Contemporary Museum of Photography, Art and Culture in Gramercy. The theme of this year’s festival, conceived in alignment with the museum’s spring exhibition, is “INTEGRATION: Music/Technology + Human/Nature” – an exploration of human connection against the backdrop of ever-advancing technology that is changing how we relate to one another and make music.
