In September Celebrity Series will present Concert For One: 1 Musician. 1 Listener. 1 Minute of Live Music, a public art project, part concert series, part social experiment that will produce thrilling, intimate free concerts in Boston and Cambridge joining one listener with one local musician for 60 seconds.
We invite you to both apply for this project if you are a musician, or help us spread the word to those you know who might want to participate in this exciting public art project.
We hope to hear from you soon!
PROJECT DETAILS
What: Concert For One: 1 Musician. 1 Listener. 1 Minute of Live Music
One minute may be shorter than a concerto or a simple street tune but is more than enough time to form a strong emotional bond and create a lasting musical memory. Based on a concept by violist and New England Conservatory graduate Rayna Yun Chou, the performances will happen inside two specially outfitted shipping containers.
Local solo musicians from a variety of genres including, but not limited to, classical, jazz, world music and contemporary -- who are enthusiastic to participate in this unique community event -- are welcome to apply!
When: September 20-29th 2019
Where: The project will happen simultaneously in two locations: Harvard Science Center Plaza and The Greenwayâs Chinatown Park.
Stipend: Each musician will be paid $85/hour. We ask that all musicians sign up for at least 2 hours of participation. (Each hour includes a 45-minute set with a 15-minute break).
Applications will be accepted until April 26.
Applicants will be notified by email of their selection status by May 15.
