Vertical Neighbors (World Premiere) featuring TILT Brass Ensemble at Swiss Institute

Please join us for the public activation of Raven Chacon’s Vertical Neighbors, a newly commissioned large-scale outdoor score currently installed on SI’s facade. This performance takes place on the occasion of Chacon’s solo exhibition at SI, A Worm’s Eye View from a Bird’s Beak. Vertical Neighbors is a composition for pairs of the same brass horn instrument. The score exists as a set of murals, visible to one or more musicians on the ground and their counterparts in an elevated position. A performance of this composition becomes an acknowledgement of vertical orientations as temporal relationships, aligning past and future knowledge.
