Listen to the Cry of the World, the inaugural project of the Cheswatyr Incubator (a collaboration between PS21, International Contemporary Ensemble, and the Cheswatyr Foundation), is a full-length piece exploring the idea of ecology and blackness by composer, drummer, and scholar Jessie Cox. Developed in close collaboration with Ensemble musicians, the experimental piece has undergone two workshops at the Ensemble’s headquarters in Downtown Brooklyn, which will be followed by a week-long residency at PS21 in July, culminating in this world premiere performance.

Join us as AMOC* artists traverse centuries and landscapes in two programs that bring audiences from the Summer sunset to theatrical night. The first, at 7:00pm, includes Cassandra Miller’s About Bach—a patient meditation on melody, memory, and the passage of time at the day’s end—and Andrew McIntosh’s Little Jimmy, which combines field recordings, piano, and percussion to reflect Southern California’s terrifyingly sublime expanse.
