The orchestra is a microcosm — society in a petri dish. The perfect laboratory for figuring out our thoughts about the pressures and possibilities of the throng. Drunk on Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, an ecstatic hymn to the multitudes within us and without, this night will look at how music and art has taken on multiplicity and our overloaded present.
