grow|thaw

An acoustic installation for seventeen musicians, recorded at the Gallery at 333 Midland in Highland Park, MI.

The second of Regenerate! Music's online concerts, "grow|thaw" presents immersive and energizing soundscapes evocative of spring.

grow|thaw features some of Southeast Michigan's most creative and innovative performers ; filmed and audio recorded in 333 Midland's luminous Annex Gallery.

A structure originally conceived by J. Clay Gonzalez and Nadine Dyskant-Miller, "grow|thaw" is part flute concerto, part meditation, part sculpture, and part ritual. Spring is a season of both rising and tumult, two states our performers poignantly embody through this performance. As you tune in on the evening of the equinox, we hope this music opens you to the chaos and beauty of this tempestuous season.
