Have you ever wondered what a picture sounds like in the hands of an 18-piece orchestra?

A series of new, one-page graphic scores come to life in the hands of the Plastic Acid Orchestra and guest conductor Giorgio Magnanensi.

Over the course of three days in January, community members from a range of backgrounds will learn about and experiment with graphic notation, sound, composition, gesture and figure to create their own One-Page Scores for the Plastic Acid Orchestra.

Join us on Saturday, January 28 at 8PM at Pyatt Hall to see and hear the results!
