Experiential Orchestra (EXO) presents three performances in the seldomly seen Crypt at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. During these concerts, EXO invites audiences to listen deeply in this profound and mysterious setting. The program features Franz Schreker's Intermezzo, Caroline Shaw's Punctum for string orchestra, Jessie Montgomery's Source Code, James Blachly's Work for Strings, and Ludwig van Beethoven's String Quartet Op. 132 Mvt 3, Heiliger Dankgesang, arranged by Blachly for string orchestra.
With these concerts, EXO continues its ongoing exploration of the relationship between sound and architecture throughout the Cathedral. Each work on the program was specially chosen for the unique acoustics and atmosphere of the Crypt. The performances are also a homecoming for Blachly - more than 20 years ago, he recorded his first string quartet in this very space.
The GRAMMY(R)-winning Experiential Orchestra (EXO) brings audiences close to the music by engaging listeners through imaginative, immersive, and interactive concert experiences. Founded by Music Director James Blachly in 2009, EXO's performances and recordings have been described as "strikingly persuasive" by the San Francisco Chronicle and "immaculate" by Musical America, and have been praised for having "luscious tone and poise" by Classics Today.
