Over the past year, I invited you – the citizens of Toronto – to collaborate with me to compose a new symphony which will be premiered by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra on March 9, 2013, at the New Creations Festival, just two weeks from today!
I wanted to share some recent stories in the press that nicely capture what this whole journey has been about. I thought the following articles were particularly well done. Enjoy!
- Boston Globe – Sounds of a city: A new template for collaboration in Toronto
- Toronto Life – Found Sounds
- Musical Toronto – Toronto school children become engaged composers in Toronto Symphony experiment
- International Arts Manager magazine: Electric dreams: Composer and inventor Tod Machover on music and participatory practice
I look forward to meeting you at the premiere!
