Hailed for its “agile virtuosity and vibrant sound” and “visually arresting, brilliantly executed” performances (Arts and Culture Texas), the artist-led, artist-curated Kinetic Ensemble visits MIT to celebrate creative collaboration and new beginnings, and to explore music inspired by human invention, cultural heritage, and the natural world.


Founded and directed by Natalie Lin Douglas (Associate Professor of Music at MIT), Kinetic premieres two new works by MIT faculty members Miguel Zenón (GRAMMY Award winner; Guggenheim and MacArthur Fellow) and Evan Ziporyn (Kenan Sahin Distinguished Professor; Director of the Center for Art, Science & Technology). The ensemble also presents the Boston premiere of The Wilderness Anthology for string orchestra and soundscapes by guest composer Patrick Harlin, whose interdisciplinary work combines the fields of musical composition and soundscape ecology.


This event is presented by the MIT Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST) and MIT Music and Theater Arts (MTA) as part of the MIT Artfinity Arts Festival and the inaugural season of events in the Edward and Joyce Linde Music Building at MIT.
