About this event
Presented by P4P and C'mon Festival...
We're looking for 111 people on bikes to perform Eine Brise by Argentine avant-garde composer Mauricio Kagel.
Eine Brise translates as “a breeze” and is composed for 111 cyclists travelling in a pack (approximately 1.5 meters apart) while making 5 distinct sounds during their short journey:
- Ringing bike bells
- Whistling
- Singing
- Making a shhhhhh sound
- Making a fluttering sound
Edmonton Symphony musician and artistic director of the C'mon Festival, Kathryn Macintosh will lead the "Bike Breeze" with signs located along the route to indicate what/when the different sounds are made.
Eine Brise takes 2 minutes to perform.
No musical experience necessary.
