Espacées

Before his death, Edgar Varèse began planning a work that would tour the audience through a variety of spaces, soundscapes, and moods. Although the work was never completed, the idea has persisted that music and sound can happen in simultaneous space and time. Espacées builds on Varèse's foundation: The show features a new commission by James Ervin (trumpeter and performer with Walk off the Earth), spoken word by El Jones and music by Philip Glass that's experienced while the audience travels through different rooms.
