A musical premiere is brought to life by five vocal soloists and an 18-instrument ensemble conducted by Matthew Aucoin. \nMusic for New Bodies is inspired by the visionary poetry of Jorie Graham\, addressing some of the most urgent questions of our time: In our quest for immortality\, what have human beings done to the planet\, and what are we doing to ourselves? What are these post-human\, machine-generated intelligences that we so heedlessly continue to create\, and which seem almost capable of replacing us? Music for New Bodies is a 360-degree portrait of the moment we are living in\, a piece that brings together questions of environmental responsibility\, scientific progress and the ethics of humanity’s questionable quest to surpass the human. \nBuy Tickets
