About this Event
A bold, cross-disciplinary concert series weaving sound, movement, and image. From intimate solo works to dynamic chamber ensembles, the season ranges from acoustic traditions to the frontiers of electronics, film, and multimedia. Featuring both rising talents and acclaimed collectives, Pulsing Sound invites audiences into innovative, emotionally resonant, and visually immersive experiences that capture the pulse of contemporary living.
THE BLANC is proud to co-present multiple concerts with an extraordinary range of ensemble partners. These collaborations bring together musicians and creators from across generations, genres, and artistic backgrounds—string quartets and composerperformers, improvisers and multimedia collectives—each with a distinct voice and approach. Through these partnerships, Pulsing Sound highlights the breadth of New York's musical landscape and the vitality of the communities shaping it.
