NYC: ‘Airth’ by CoroDelantal NY + Sonic Mud

CoroDelantal is a laboratory for choral experimentation that was created in New York City in 2011 by Spanish composer Sonia Megias. After one year of work, the project expanded to Spain (Madrid and Alicante), where it continues running.

We’ll start celebrating our 15th anniversary with a series of concerts in New York City. For this one, we’ll share stage with some special guests: flutist Jane Rigler or visual artist Julia Elsas with her Sonic Mud creations.
