Experience an innovative free musical evening at MAAM with A Far Cry, offered in connection with the museum’s evening event series, Twilight at MAAM. Enjoy live music up close and personal, creative conversation, and seasonal mocktails. 

On Wednesday, February 28, A Far Cry will facilitate a musical encounter far from the traditional concert hall.  Listening Lab is an intentional space where listeners are encouraged to be full participants in the music. Engage in play. Process your responses. Take absolute pleasure in the sonic bath. And practice new ways of listening to music, ourselves, and each other.    

The event will feature A Prayer for Peace, a newly commissioned work by dynamic Korean-American composer Jungyoon Wie, which explores the nuanced themes of her own immigration story. Held in connection with MAAM’s current exhibition, The Myth of Normal: A Celebration of Authentic Expression, the evening will foster dialog through looking and listening, opening up expectations around what is “normal,” and how we can connect across difference through art.

Participants of all ages will be invited to explore new ways of listening: to music, to ourselves, and to our communities.

MAAM may accommodate unregistered guests on the evening of this event only as capacity allows; tickets on the evening of the event are not guaranteed.
