Unweathered Embers transforms the acoustic sounds of 19 Bay Area vocalists and musicians in unique orchestral & surround-sound arrangements. The piece is composed especially for the festival’s Green Sound theme to be all-acoustic and use no electricity, while taking advantage of the stellar acoustics of the space. Clusters of performers surround audiences in different areas and nooks, some even hidden from view, creating a reverberant other-worldly sound that will change as the audience members move through the space.
