The clue’s in the name. A Far Cry was founded out of a desire to do things differently: to break the mold, think outside the box, blaze a new trail. Amongst the ways we realize this is through unconventional programming; another is fostering an open accessibility to our audience. But those two streams can clash. It’s a classic conundrum: those who seek to circumvent tradition are often deeply steeped in it, and so the circumventing – although an attempt to break with convention or to be more “real” – can come across as even more niche.

It’s hard to believe I’m already entering my fourth season as a full-fledged Crier, and every day I feel proud to be part of a group that is truly unlike any other orchestra.

For Seasons is more than a concert—it’s a meditation on what we’ve inherited and what we risk losing. Through imaginative programming and visceral performance, A Far Cry offers audiences not just beauty and power, but also a moment to pause, reflect, and reimagine a more sustainable world.
